Hi DJ!  Welcome to CrazyBoards ... I think you'll like it here.  Your story wasn't boring at all.  Matter of fact your description of how you figured things out and how your wife's experiences played into it is rather fascinating. And as a mom myself, I'm really glad it also helped her understand it wasn't weakness to take the meds.  Wow.  I love stories of mutual growth in marriage ;)

Everybody's different, but for what it's worth I take Lexapro too and have been very happy with it, so I think your new doc chose a good one.  (Be prepared for this thread to be moved down to the Intro board though, since it's not so much about the SSRI's.)

"No."

"That's depressing."

You probably had to be there........

Oh yeah, I'm there.  My favorite (can't claim copyright, it's from a friend's marriage, but is soooo apropos):

"Did you take your pill?"

"Yes."

"Can you take another one?"

LOL! Coming from a marriage where we both take our own "special meds" it is an everyday question around here!

"did you take your pills?"

"Yes, did you take YOURS?"

Best of luck on the Lexapro DJ, many people here love it. I am so glad you found a good Doc for you both.
