Hi Amanda. I'm on Lexapro for depression and anxiety. The funny thing about it is that there is no OHMYGOD BAM improvement. Lexapro is in a class of medications known as SSRIs which block seratonin in your brain. So it's really a gradual thing (2 months-ish) before you see an upward improvement. I can definitely say there is an improvement from my former state 3 months ago (prior to the medication).
