How long does Lexapro take to fully kick in?

Good comment, Tyrese! It's also true that it may take several more weeks to see improvements after a dosage increase.
@allthingsme,
Try to distract yourself from worrying about how and when the medication will work for you and worrying about your symptoms. You're feeding into your anxiety and a positive attitude is very helpful in noticing improvements you may not be aware of.
Try reading, walking, meditation, put on some favorite music, doing a craft or hobby... anything that will keep your mind occupied and that you enjoy. You may be pleasantly surprised...

I concur @WC

One thing I can say WC is full of knowledge! You do be surprised when you start to feel better, when the side effects go 1 by 1 etc. It's different with every person. The best advice is do talk to your doctor keep them informed. Doing things to get your mind off things helps

@Trallyn.
Thank you! :)
Your comment was excellent. It's hard getting through the side effects initially but it's well worth it when you start feeling better.

No, thank you :-)!! You can speak on things because you've been there. Your comments gave me hope when I started to give up on escitalopram. The side effects do get you starting out, which I'm at day 25, and I do talk with my doctor today explaining my experience. And I and gonna mention U WC the support talk which helped me :-)! Thank u for caring about us all, God bless you and keep u safe!
