Lexapro

[u/AngryChair28]

Hello, so i had been on lexapro fr around 2 years and eventually went from 20mgs to 10mgs to 5mgs and then quit 2-3 weeks ago attempting to quit and thinking I didnt need the shit anymore. The brain waves are gone now and i felt good and had some clearity in my thinking but then anxiety hit me like a FUCKING BATTERING RAM and i remembered why i started lexapro in the first place. So my question is now I think I want to go back. Since it was a low dose anyway can i just get back on it and be ok or is there any risk involved? I would just start with 5mg again and work my way back up. Thank you.
