Anyone have experience with Lexapro?
I’ve been on a half-dose for a few months now, and honestly, I haven’t felt any mental health issues for months. About two weeks ago, I decided to take matters into my own hands and started taking a half-dose every other day instead... and man, I am paying for it. The headaches, the dizziness, the nausea... it’s brutal. I know, I know, I’m being irresponsible here... but I just can’t face taking a pill every single day anymore, and the thought of actually going to see my psychiatrist makes it even worse...
Does anyone actually know what the proper tapering process looks like?
