I'm not now taking Lexapro but I did for about seven years and it was very effective. I didn't have any short- or long-term side effects... but I've never had side effects with any medication except maybe a slight headache. Lucky me. Lexapro is FDA approved to treat anxiety disorders. You'll get some pros and cons with these User Reviews:

Not to rule out Celexa... just speaking from my personal experience with Lexapro.
After three months with minimal if any improvement maybe it is time to look at your options.
Hang in there and keep us updated, okay?
