Okay, I just thought I would let you all know that I'm taking Lexapro for my anxiety/depression. It's been about three or four weeks now. It seems to be working too! smile.gif No side effects. Doc says it's fine to BF while taking. But I'm still a bit nervous. DH says I'm a lot "better"...he describes me as more relaxed, which I guess is a good thing. Anyone else taking it? Here's a link if you're interested since I know there are others who take meds for depression.

Lexapro

I'm glad it's working for you Rae. Depression, be it post partum or not, is the pits. I hope things continue to look up.

Kudos for doing something about it, it's hard for a lot of people to admit to much less actually do something about. Glad you're feeling better! hug.gif hug.gif hug.gif

That is so good. I am also on meds. I am on Paxil. It is good that you admitted and relized that you needed help. That is the biggest step to take and after that it should look up from there. I know that I feel so much better after being on them. smile.gif
