And by the way, thanks to everyone who gave their input, but whom I didn't reply to individually... I get really tired really quickly still, so I'm usually good for replying to 1 or 2 messages, and then I have to go lay back down. By the time I get back to the computer, I forget what I was going to say.  But I appreciate all the responses!!
I can actually tell that the lexapro is working, which is exciting. First of all, the night before last, I had one of my mid-dream panic attacks, where I wake up out of a weird dream and immediately have a panic attack. Except that, well, I couldn't panic. LOL! So I ended up just kind of laying there for a little bit, and then I went back to sleep. It rocked! I mean, I'm only on a half-dose, so I'm looking forward to a full dose maybe getting rid of those altogether.
Second, I had D this morning... but I just ate a big bowl of chicken noodle soup and 2 slices of french bread toast. I know this doesn't sound like a big deal; it's one of those things where you'd have to have lived with me to really understand, but D attacks usually mean me just *not eating* for the rest of the day, if not the next day too. The idea that I'm chowing down a couple hours later is a really big deal to me!
So I have hope now, which is good... because yep, I'm still having side effects. The D is the worst of it right now, and the dizziness. I'm a little less tired than I was, and I can do a little more, although I still can't drive, because of the dizziness. I bump my dose up to the full dose on Thursday, and I'll be sure to report if anything gets worse.
How about you? Still giddy and hyper? Feeling any other effects??
