5 weeks on 10mg escitalopram no noticeable change yet.

I was hoping for some change in mood by now but feeling very apathetic and sleeping for 10 hrs a night. Should I hang on in there? Bit disappointed after putting up with the side effects. I have had a driving anxiety which so far no change with that either.

Hang in there,it could take 8-12 weeks and very slowly it gets better.Try to stay busy with other people and a therapist is great to talk to.I am at 10 weeks and a definite improvement. .Best of luck and God bless you.

Thank you Pam. I will be patient. I wonder if my G.P will up my dose to 20mg? Hoping that I will turn a corner soon!
