kathleenp Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 After developing akathesia on Pristiq my doctor switched me to Lexpro last week. I am having some pretty major mood swings. Has anyone had this and had it stop after taking it for a while? I am also extremely tired during the day. I sleep well at night, but I swear I need at least 12 hours of sleep a day now.

tryp Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 I'm on Celexa, which is very chemically similar to Lexapro, and when I first started it, I felt grumpy and weird for a while, and I also felt brain-fogged and dopey during the day. Most of my side effects disappeared after the first month or so, so give it some time to settle down before you make any decisions about how the med is going to work for you.
