Possibly swapping from escitalopram 20mg to paroxetine HCL 40mg
I mentioned to my doctor I wasn’t sure if my lexapro was working anymore or something, and he sent in a script for paroxetine 40mg. I’ve been on Lexapro for probably a year or so now, but I’m nervous about swapping. I feel like my symptoms (I have major depression and generalized anxiety diagnosed, never been to a psych but sure there is more) aren’t as bad as they were without it, but I’m not sure if they’re any better either. It’s so hard to explain. Is 40mg a high dose? What can I expect on it? Did anyone swap from the same thing I was on and noticed improvements? I guess I just wanna hear some experiences because I have no clue about this and am scared to start it because of google.
