- So I recently found out I am pregnant (around 5 weeks). I have been taking 20 mg of Lexapro and have been on this medication since 2005 to treat OCD. I just started to try to wean off (from 20mg to 15 mg) and have been unable to sleep for the past...

- Today I was driving home after I got acupuncture, which is a relaxing experience. I was looking for parking in my overcrowded neighborhood when, all of a sudden, someone lays on their horn, causing me to nearly jump out of my skin. Apparently, I was...
- Today I had someone tell me that I'm "too nice." He also told me that he found his old supervisor to be "too nice" and it was too easy to work with her for this reason. He said he needed a challenge. I started thinking more about this and thought...
- Hello, I am also new. I was diagnosed with OCD and Depression back in 2005. Sometimes I think what I have resembles GAD more than OCD and the OCD that I have is more of a "pure o" type. Sometimes I feel like maybe I don't relate as much to those...
- I have noticed that people assume a lot about you when you are quiet/introverted/sensitive, at least from my own experience. One thing that really annoys me is when I tell someone I don't know very well that something made me very angry. A response...
- Has anyone here successfully been able to come off meds? Or has anyone been able to transition from SSRIs to 5-HTP or Gaba? I have been thinking about eventually coming off Lexapro, but I'm scared. My fiance wants me to come off the Lexapro and...
- I just went to California for two weeks. My fiance and I are planning on moving there and we spent some time preparing our new home. During our trip, we stayed in different motels and then a trailer, which had no running water or electricity. I had...

- Once in a while, I go through a period where I take Xanax. The thing is, my boyfriend does not know this. He is very much against any kind of medication and thinks things should be cured naturally. He knows that I am on Lexapro, but I don't think he...
- Last night, I went to a friend's gathering. When I cam home and saw pictures of myself on facebook, I found things wrong with them. I could not stop obsessing about how I styled my outfit wrong and how I had put so much effort into it only for it...
- I grew up as a child of divorce. My dad took me shopping nearly every weekend and bought me something. I think he was trying to buy my love. My mom and I went shopping nearly every weekend as well. I think it was the way my parents expressed their...
- Hello. I am new here. I was diagnosed with OCD about 9 years ago and have been on Lexapro for most of that time since. My time of OCD seems to be mostly "pure O" or just the intrusive thoughts. The compulsions I perform are mostly in my mind. My OCD...
- This always seems to happen when change hits...my system gets overwhelmed. I brace myself for it and maybe this makes it worse because I build it up in my mind. I battle with thoughts that I can't handle the new change and that I will have no choice...
- So, my fiance and I are about to buy a piece of land in California. We have been together for 7 years and he has been talking about moving there since I've met him. Through the years, we have visited the part of CA where he wants to build a house...
