Escitalopram
generalized anxiety disorde
"I've been diagnosed with GAD with panic attacks. We have now tried cipralex (canadian version of Lexapro). I started on 10 mg and it seemed to help a bit. It helped with the protruding thoughts of suicide (without intent)  I've been on 20 mg for about 2.5 weeks. I take it at night because it makes me tired. I still have a lot of anxiety in the morning and have to take ativan to get relief. I've been noticing the last few days that the negative thoughts are popping back in my head. When it happens, I feel like a panic attack is going to start but it goes away. I'm wondering if I'm suffering a bit of OCD.  Has anyone tried 30mg of cipralex and has it helped with anxiety and OCD?"
