I have been on lexapro for 2 and half years on 10mg a day. At the time of prescription I was struggling with depression And within a few days of starting and only 2 days of nausea, Mentally I felt great! Now a days I still feeling mentally well But constantly tired and have gained 15kg. GP said it Shouldn't be what is making me tired but have heard from An acquaintance that they also suffer tiredness from it. Is This the case for anyone else? I have had blood tests done But nothing else seems to show up to make me so Exhausted all the time.

Hi, from your history I feel that your symptoms have not subsided due to inadequate dosage of lexapro. Your tiredness could also be a part of depression which needs to be diagnosed first and then treated appropriately. I suggest you consult a psychiatrist and take help.
