Lexapro withdrawal-how long will it last?!


Question: Lexapro withdrawal-how long will it last?
I was on 10 mg lexapro a day for 6 months. My dr weaned me off and I was fine during the weaning process. I've been completely off the lexapro for almost 2 weeks. I have noticed lately i'm alot more aggressive, i'm nauseated all the time, have terrible headaches, tired all the time, and at night sometimes I feel anxious... I want to add i'm 35 weeks pregnant so i don't know if this is from being pregnant or if its withdrawal symptoms. I felt no where like this during my last pregnancy... any advice would be great!

This is something you really need to talk to your doctor about. It could be because you're pregnant, or it could be because your original symptoms are coming back after going off Lexapro. I took Lexapro for a year and just stopped taking it. I wasn't weened off, and I never notice any withdrawl symptoms from it at all. But for some people they do have withdrawl. That's why you should talk to your doctor.
