Arktis_Conviction wrotemesses with sex life. (makes it hard to orgasm).Out of curiosity, why don't you want to revert back to Lexapro? What are the downsides to it that you've experienced?
Rukuss wroteyeah ..i would love to be in that mind frame. That you cant really control what is beyond your own control. Its very hard to get to that point and actual believe yourself though.My Mom use to suffer from anxiety for a while, but she found that if she told her self everyday that she can only control what she says and does, and everything else is uncontrollable, whatever happens happens, and with that mind frame she was able to over come it, hope this helps you.

tinman831 wroteawesome man.Went through the same thing when I was in grad school. Affected my studies and relationships big time. Came a turning point where I finally decided to suck it up and overcome my issues. So far so good...
1stm235i wroteYes, stress is bad.. I think anxiety and stress are related.
Andrew115 wroteit has probably made the symptoms and stuff much better or go away, but its kind of like a mask if you ask me. If you take away the med, does it stay gone? Not usually the case in most instances.I have a friend on Paxil she swears by it and thinks it has all but cured her. Hope you find relief, it's a very tough situation that you can only manage day by day. Good luck.
Rukuss wroteThis is what did it for me. I used to have terrible anxiety in my teen years, but eventually realized there was no point worrying about things I had no control over. I used the "fake it 'til you make it" mentality at the same time and it has worked wonders.My Mom use to suffer from anxiety for a while, but she found that if she told her self everyday that she can only control what she says and does, and everything else is uncontrollable, whatever happens happens, and with that mind frame she was able to over come it, hope this helps you.
sometimes...
93civEJ1 wroteYou have anxiety, pay for a prescription, yet smoke weed that causes anxiety anyway….12 years later, and I have been on lexapro for years now. Anxiety isnt too bad these days for the most part, except the times I use something green and it turns bad. Which is about 93% of the time.
