Hey everyone
So I've been off and on taking 10mg Escitaloprám (another name for Lexapro) since about 2020 and I'm currently about 20ish days into my current run, about a week ago I started getting real bad anxiety about losing my partner (worse part is I know the anxiety is completely unreasonable) boarder line crippling and I'm still waiting for the effects to kick in. It's not as bad as it was a week ago, like I have moments where I feel I can function pretty normally and then other moments where the anxiety spikes, feels like it comes and goes in waves. This is taking a lot longer then previous uses to kick in and I guess my question is, is this normal for it to take this long? and how much longer do I need to wait before my normal self comes back online because I hate feeling like this
