"I have BPD and anxiety disorder and have been taking Lexapro for many years. Due to the illness, behavior can be quite erratic, so I have taken myself off my medication. But believe me, those around me notice when I do. Believe me, with this medication, I am completely manic and lose all touch with reality."

"My brother told me about how it helped him, and it sounded just the ticket. Been on it for about 6 months, and I no longer get furious in a nanosecond. Much better for me and the kids."
