i'm about to start lexapro 10mg today... i've been taking 2 mgs of xanax daily... tried stopping the xanax cold turkey and got terrible withdrawal effects.... nightmares and hallucinations -- so doc told me to start taking xanax again at 2 mgs a day and wean off -- taking 1/4 mg less weekly... i'm down to 1mg now -- going to start it with lexapro today -- still hoping to wean off of the xanax -- any suggestions out there... thanks mickscag@aol.com
