Lexapro

Hello I have anxiety and somewhat of a depression issue. (58 year old woman, post menopause) Treated with Xanax . Never took much small amounts every so often would help me. A few months ago I was having a very difficult time with alot going on. My GP had me talk with a psych nurse to prescribe the meds. I was put on Lexapro. Started low at 5mg making my way to 12.5 Only on for 2 months I really cannot stand being on antidepressants. I have been before when I had postpartum depression. Anyway, i have weaned off. I am happy I have because, although it did help calm me it made me have such a blah feeling and that I could nap every day. Anyway. I have been off about a week . I have tinnitis in my ears. Anyone have experience with this? Thank YOu
