Hey guys, was suffering from panic/anxiety disorder quite badly. I've started taking Lexapro about 9 days ago. Can anyone share how the first couple of weeks were for them? Thanks in advance

Hi liam
It took almost 6 weeks, then I started to feel much better, day by day, really little steps, but finally today I feel like 90% of me again. Stay strong!

  Thanks! I feel very strange at the moment. I suppose I just need to ride it out.

  I had severe anxiety and panic attacks which left me unable to function properly. Lots of physical symptoms as well. Very stressful time
