Lexapro
generalized anxiety disorde
"Male, late 40's.  Earlier summer events created extended stress that eventually broke me.  Every morning I'd wake with sweat rolling down my neck, lost my appetite and the worst-case scenario of everything played in my mind.  I'm normally the "rock" that everyone turns to.  Started with Wellbutrin for 2 weeks but that left me with heightened anxiety.  Spent a couple weeks on Propranolol / Klonopin but that 's not a long term solution.  Started 10 mg Lexapro (generic) and after 5 1/2 weeks, nothing but crazy emotional swings.  Switched to 20 mg and after about 2 weeks noticed a distinct change.  Greatly reduced symptoms so far.  Skeptical as I was, this stuff actually works."
