Cipralex ( Escitalopram ) is working for me

Treatment and medication
1

It took some trials of 3 different anti-depressants before it started to work. I really have been doubtful over the years about trying this but now the (Escitalopram&#160 Cipralex for the last number of weeks is really working for me. I have also added group therapy 4 times a week which helps me understand as I make my way back to my natural self. This is what works for me and so glad that I persisted.

Hi Jimmiego, so so pleased to read that you’re finally getting there! 

Escitalopram was the second med I tried and as long as you stick with them they work well! 

When you start feeling yourself again it’s great so I wish you well and take care 😊

Thank-you MrsSusan and Jennifer. I started Cipralex about 8 weeks ago and take 5mg. It started to work for me in about 5 weeks. I woke up one morning and felt very good and knew that something was happening. I feel and believe it is making a difference for me and allows me to objectively examine and work thru my daily life in a harmonious manner. Thanks for asking. 👍

Yes, my Dr. told me escitalopram and Cipralex are the same. Not sure about Lexapro.
