Answers:
Well, you are on a VERY low dose of medication!. You might want to talk to your doctor about increasing it!. Usually, with antidepressants, you increase it until you reach a level where you feel 'good!.'
Also, Lexapro might not be the right medication!. People often have to try a couple (I tried one before I found the one I'm on now, which works really well) before they settle on the 'right' one!.
ALSO!.!.!.how long have you been on it!? Antidepressants usually take about 3 weeks to really start working!.
Either way, talk to your doctor!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Looks like you are kinda feeling like me :( It's tough!. Maybe when you see your doctor they will adjust the dose or change medication for you!. That's what I am hoping for!. Sorry I am not of much help, but I do care!. Feel better :)Www@Answer-Health@Com
