my reason for going to 20 mg is I badly need the full effect of whatever medication I am on, and the doctor recommended I increase my dosage to 20 mg; my reason for going back to 15 a week ago or so is the depressed/fluey feeling from the 20; I find it hard to believe that 10 is enough considering I needed 40 of Paxil, but if I continue to feel depressed from the 15 mg, I will definitely go down to 10; if I don't get a sense of Lexapro clearing up my head within another month, I'm going back to Paxil, sexual side effects and all (although I SURE don't want to)
> *** why did you go to 20mg? you only gave 10mg 1 wk...it might be enough...if not, 15mg should be...if you can, try going back to 10mg and give it a fair chance (2 weeks) before going up. (the flu stuff might be from going to the higher dose so fast) good luck and keep us posted
