[QUOTE="Robert44, post: 699936, member: 20647"] My son was on 10 mg for a month. We just increased it to 15 mg. He's been on that for a week. I think it's helping him. He seems to be happier. Haven't seen any signs of depression. He does sleep a lot though but when he's awake he seems happy. He is still clean. Has not gone out with friends in over a month. I'm just giving him time right now. I'm happy that he is agreeing to take the medication and that he's clean at this point. He never talks about any plans for the future. Loves the dog. I'm hoping the medication will help him to feel better and than he will hopefully get some motivation to do something. I know that the medications are not a magic bullet. I know he's clean cause he's home all the time. First time in 5 years that he's clean like this. My next step will be to get him to agree to go back to therapy. I am putting some hope in the medications though. I feel like he needs help at this point. He's been on the Lexapro for about 5 weeks now. His Psychiatrist did say we can do the DNA test if we choose to do so. I have to find out if the insurance will cover it. Right now I'm giving this Lexapro a chance. I know when my wife finally got on the right medications it really helped her. thanks for reading and prayers to all. Robert [/QUOTE]
