abitcrazy Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 Well, after years of being on Lexapro, I'm finally off it! I did the final tapering last week..been off it for 8 days now. I've had almost no side effects, although I've also been increasing Lamictal, so that may have something to do with it. After reading all the SEs of coming off Lexapro, and knowing that I had been on 20mg for 4-5 years, I was really worried. Thank God it went well! I'm sure that the really slow rate of tapering my pdoc used also helped a lot. Now we just need to get the Lamictal dosage dialed in. abitcrazy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm in the process of coming down off of Citalopram, so we'll see how that goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
