I have become extremely anxious and had trouble going to work this past spring. since I've been off I have barely left my house and become agoraphobic like my dad. I was on Buspar and it didn't help. I then tried lexapro and within 20 minutes after taking my first pill I was sitting on my bed hysterically crying and rocking. Tried citalopram and that made me vomiting frequently going to the bathroom, stomach cramps, uninterested in food, exhausted and zombie-like so I stopped taking it.

I have now been off medicine and seeing a therapist. the problem is I Start work again in 10 days and I'm looking back and wondering if the lexapro dose at 10 mg was just too high for me since I am only 104 lbs. Has anyone tried it at a smaller dose and had positive results?
