MCS - With Lexapro, I feel nothing at all. With Paxil, I felt fuzzy-minded. With Zoloft, I felt a buzz. It's hard to explain, but for most of my life I've been mildly depressed. No wide mood swings or terrible despair. Just ongoing mild anxiety and sadness. Talk therapy would lift the sadness for a while, but it always came back. I avoided medications. Didn't like to take aspirin. Now, after two years on Lexapro, I live without ongoing anxiety and sadness. It's amazing. I am grateful. Apparently, I needed my brain chemicals adjusted.
