I want to preface this by making sure that everyone understands that this is pure hearsay and that I myself have never taken Lexapro, nor am I qualified in any way to make any recommendations in regards to it. Okay? Good!
What I wanted to share with everyone is a very exciting and encouraging thing that has happened to one of my very best friends after taking Lexapro for just a couple of weeks. Prior to being prescribed this drug, he was always depressed and discontent and reported that the only time he ever felt happy and content was when he was using crystal meth (snorting "ice"). He had begun seeking it out as often as possible and it was having an increasingly detrimental effect on his life. His work performance was suffering and his 28 year marriage was falling apart, as well. Within the first 2 weeks of being on Lexapro, he completely lost his desire for crystal meth!!! It has been over 3 months now and, not only does he no longer seek out "ice", he has no problem whatsoever in passing it up whenever it is offered to him! I am simply thrilled for him---and floored, to say the least!!!
Anyway, once again, I must remind you that I am not trying to say that this is a benefit that can be expected from this new drug, Lexapro. I am only reporting one single instance of what my close friend believes it has done for him so that it might give some hope to others suffering as he was and perhaps motivate them to investigate the possibilities further.
