Weaning Off 30mg Lexapro So for about a year and 2 months I have been taking Lexapro for GAD. Started off on 5mg then got bumped up to 10.. then 20.. then 30! Also I only just turned 19 in November. I didn't realize at the time how high of a dosage that was and when my mother found out I was on 30mg she freaked. So after a lot of consideration I decided to wean off of it and have been for a couple of months now. Right now I've been taking 5 mg for one week but missed the last day of that (yesterday) and now I'm suppose to take 5mg every other day for a week and then stop taking it. Yesterday I didn't have much of an appetite and felt very nauseous all day, then couldn't sleep and ended up staying up till about 5am. When I woke up today I was very dizzy so I ended up taking an OTC dizzy med after it wouldn't stop, now hours later I'm still slightly dizzy but I haven't been able to eat much all day. Does anyone have any advice on widthdrawl effects and how to prevent the dizziness and nausea? Tags for this Thread
