Are you still on Lexapro? What kind of side effects does Lexapro cause. I'm mostly worried about having children. I'm 27, and not at all close to having a...
I think you are going way too fast. And dropping from 10 mg to 5 mg is too much, that's 50%! I would try going to 7.5 with a pill cutter or get liquid...
Although Paxil is the only SSRI with pregnancy warnings right now, I think the others will follow. They all work the same way. Plus there is a good chance...
