Hi-Unfortunately, I don't have answers for you, but just want to say that in the almost week I've been on Lexapro (taking it in the a.m.), I have lacked the energy and drive to do tasks I otherwise would do daily. I fall asleep at the drop of the hat. I haven't attempted sex yet, so don't know whether I'll have that bad SE yet. I am new to AD meds, and want to avoid the side effects I keep hearing about. As for lifting of depression, I just don't know...I suppose I had some "good" days on the Lex...that is, I was a little friendlier and yet, it does not seem readily apparent just what this med is supposed to be doing that is so positive that it would outweigh the heavy sleeping and lack of productivity. I'm getting a little bummed by it. My hopes were high when I got the prescription...
