Does anyone know if Lexapro is bad? Does it do any harm? Are there any other cures to depression and anxiety? Dealing with all sorts of things isn’t fun especially when it’s during these times we are living in. I am hesitant to trust any kind of medication that Big Pharma has pushed out to the public. Lexapro seemed to be helping but I keep hearing that it is also very harmful to take it. Does CBD oil work? Can I ween myself to CBD oil instead?

Antidepressants should be outlawed?!?!? Please don’t ever say that! I tried every OTC remedy, vitamin, food, exercise, you name it. None of that worked for me. If I hadn’t gone on antidepressants I don’t think I’d be here anymore. And yes I tried prayer and Bible reading. When your prayers become “ Please God kill me” it might be time to take the meds.
I still suspect my thyroid was at fault. But since my blood work was playing peekaboo I couldn’t get a diagnosis. I also got diagnosed with a pituitary tumor. Might have gotten it from both ends there. I suspect a bout of hyperthyroidism did permanent damage to my brain that required psych meds to fix. I only wish I hadn’t been so stubborn and had taken them sooner.
