[QUOTE="Josie, post: 95392, member: 1792"] That didn't happen to me. I took it for about 1 1/2 years at the same dose. I ended up making a diet change for other reasons and didn't need it any more. I got off from it pretty quickly without side effects. When I have mentioned this to both of my kids' psychiatrists, they say it was because I had more of an anxiety component rather than true depression and that anxiety responds pretty quickly to the ssri's. It might have been true for former difficult child, though. I thought I could tell pretty quickly for her, too. We did need to keep increasing her dose. At the end, the psychiatrist was wanting to add Seroquel so it really wasn't working. We ended up changing her diet and weaning her off very slowly, over 18 months, 2-3 or more months at each dose reduction. I don't think the Lexapro made her worse, but it didn't help her after the beginning of each dose. [/QUOTE]
