@qbug- Good morning and thank you for getting back to us! This is good news for you. Anxiety, which is my middle name, can wreak havoc on so much of our bodies. I hope that you can move forward now and use some great relaxing techniques so that perhaps you can wean off of Lexapro at some time in the future. Keep in touch please.

How have you handled anxiety in the past?

I haven't handled it well. This is the first time I've used an AD to tackle it. I am now almost 6 weeks in and the breathing thing is 90% gone. I don't think about it and I found myself yawning last night because I was tired and wow, it was automatic!! Amazing!

So I encourage those suffering to try an OCD/anxiety targeted medication.
