[QUOTE="agingrapidly, post: 697952, member: 20622"] Hi Robert: I know that your son just returned to school. The medications will really help with the depression (and having seen the alternative of not taking the medications I would risk any side effects within reason). 10 mg of Lexapro is very low and probably his medications will be increased to be effective. My son takes medication, which has helped him. He too, like Mof's son, has gained a lot of weight, but part of that is his fault too. He recently started exercising, which I hope he will continue. Your son should write down any symptoms that he feels and you can make observations also. On another note, I was very against medications for me but when I was dealing with everything for my son I had so much anxiety I could not sleep or eat and needed to go on Lexapro, which really helped. When I went off the anxiety returned and now I am on Wellbutrin. [/QUOTE]
