    Hi David

    Hope your anxiety is under control. All this lexapro (benzodiazepine) medications make you tired and make you to sleep. That's how it's stimulate your brain. So don't worry if this is a burden. Please talk to your medical professional and reduce the dosage.

    Hi David,

    I'm on Lexapro for about a month and 3 weeks. Yes it makes you a bit sleepy, so I always take at night before bed.

    What I saw works is taking it at night, so that I can sleep like a baby!

    A bit hard to wake up, but here is where you gotta man up! We deal with anxiety we can sure as help wake up :D
