Insomnia

I'm so tired. I've only slept about three hours since last Friday and only in minutes. No, that's not a misprint. Last week, when I was REALLY beside myself, the doc put me on Lexapro. I started it on Thursday. By Friday, the insomnia had kicked in...along with a bunch of other side-effects. Last night we called her and she told me to stop taking it. It's the lowest dose--so no biggy there, but I didn't think I'd have withdrawel and I am. On the upside, my mom is coming over so when it wears off I can get some sleep. I think I will be better off emotionally when I get some rest.

I hope everyone is doing well.

I hope you get some good sleep! You are still in my thoughts and prayers!

Sure hope that you can get some real sleep soon!!! Maybe a few unisom or Benadryl to give it a kick start.

Hope that other then the not sleeping you are doing well.

I'm sorry you've not been resting well (at all). I was like that when I had the flu. I literally got 8 or 10 hours of sleep over a 5 day period ~>  M I S E R Y !!

Isn't it odd how the same medication can affect people so differently? I took Lexapro for anxiety and at night as it helped me sleep. I hope you find a medication that works for you and you're able to get rest!

Take Care,
