I take a small dose of Lexapro but I just raised it due to my annual seasonal affective disorder. It's mid october now and I feel the symptoms - grouchiness, trouble sleeping oddly, sleepiness, some depression. I also use a SAD light 20 minutes a day. Looking back I think that my all but breakdown during my initial treatment for BC had something to do with SAD. I was diagnosed in late October and started the dreaded AC in December.
