Tapering Off Lexapro Because Of Severe Eyelid Inflammation

A MyDepressionTeam Member asked a question 💭
Shrewsbury, MA

Anybody else have this problem? I was on 20mg of Lexapro. Although I felt like it was helping my mood a bit, I was very tired all day, even while taking it at night and my eyelids swelled up 2 days after starting it. I've been tapering down and I'm at 10mg right now. I go down to 5mg in a week. Im hoping my eye problem goes away. I will say, I don't feel quite right. I feel anxious even with taking klonopin.

Does Anyone Else Take Effexor?

A MyDepressionTeam Member asked a question 💭
Roseburg, OR

I've been taking a high dose of Effexor since I gave birth to my daughter who's almost 18 months old. But if I miss a dose, I feel like I'm having a breakdown because the withdrawal symptoms are so bad. Does this happen to anyone else? What should I do?

Yes I also take a high dose (have been for 15+ years). This is not a medication someone should stop cold turkey. It needs to be gradually reduced (like every few months).

I was on factor for 10 years and recently in the past six months I’ve been on Wellbutrin. I’m not a doctor but personally I just don’t think it’s a good idea. Maybe too much dopamine.
