I was on 10 mg and my doctor just increased
it to 20 mg, next week 30 mg. I am nervous
about this. Does this sound like a rapid

Lexapro and I started shaking, my heart was racing and I didn't know if I should go to the ER or not. I took an Ativan and put a cold cloth on my forehead. It was awful.
Celexa has also made me shake, but not like the Lexapro did.

I am just so scared of the disease returning. My scan in March was clear. God was good to me. My anxiety reached to a point where I s...

I had cancer last summer. I keep thinking
what if it comes back, what if I leave my
daughter, what if I can never relocate like I had planned to. My other what if's are what if I can't conquer this fear and depression.
