It's amazing how your brain can play tricks on you. You seem to be handling things well. It's great that you are able to get off the meds. I started taking Lexapro in Feb. to calm my nerves and anxiety. I know I'm not ready to get off of it yet. I didn't get my prescription filled for a couple of days and I sure could tell the difference. I was kinda weepy, not bad, but I did get a little teary eyes at times thinking about things. I figure I will work on getting off of it after the D is final. It is a very low dose so it shouldn't be hard. It's amazing though when I started thinking about going to the dr. for something a lot of my friends told me that they took anti-depressants, and I had no idea they were on them. So I guess they are far more common than I thought.
