I had a terrible time and had to come off it. I was exhausted but couldn't get to sleep, achy, upset tummy etc. I gave it about 3 months before getting switched off. The side effects never got better and the medication did not help me. But I've had problems with other ones in the past.
As far as the drug in general Lexapro is a pretty good one. It is fairly new and my doctor said she see's better results on it in most people than some of the older drugs like Zoloft. I believe it is a different drug family than Zoloft and Prozac.
