Anyone else experienced activation syndrome from lexapro? I'm getting off of it now (with permission from psychiatrist), but it was absolutely horrible to experience. Basically I was in a manic depressive state, hypersexual, super impulsive, would be calm one second and lose it the next, screaming at my mom for looking at me a certain way. I'd be so irritated and felt like I had no control over myself, very intense brain fog.

I genuinely dont know how to get out of all this. I feel like ive ruined my life. For context im 17f and have tons of permanent self harm scars. I keep relapsing, cant seem to stop for more than a few months. Been self harming since i was 14. Self harm ruins my mental health, relationships, and body. What am i supposed to do.
