Been taking Lexapro for years. Works good. Just had some health issues and I felt like I needed a boost. Looking for more energy, less fatigue and a willingness to do more. My doc gave me 150 mg of Wellbutrin. Did nothing. Looking for energy. I was wondering if increasing the Lexapro from 10 mg to 20 mg would help. Does anyone take 20 mg and do you feel more energy , etc. Lexapro has been great for me with no side effects and no weight gain. Who takes 20 mg og Lexapro and how does it work ?>
20 mg of Lexapro vs. 10 mg ...Any major differences ?

Not an expert but I am having the opposite reaction. Been on 20mg for 3 yrs cut down to 10mg last 2 weeks and now none for 2 days. I feel like this vale has been lifted and I have so much energy! I was sleeping a lot day and night! Now I'm back working and really enjoying life ... Just praying the anxiety and panic attacks don't come back. I have done a lot of research over the years and now do meditation or hypnosis every night to relax and calm my body and mind! Going well so far!!!
