Thank you young sally. I appreciate that so much. Can Lexipro taper be easy? I need some support today, I started out weaning from 20 mg for 2weeks, then 10, now 5 for a week, now tomorrow I go to 2.5 for a week then one week of every other day, and I am scared, very scared and to make things worse, my special needs son is acting out in the mornings, becoming difficult when it’s time to get on his bus. He is much bigger than I am, and way stronger and I am so upset this morning. Also, I am gaining weight on this Lexipro, my pants are getting tight. I haven’t gained weight in years and years, and this on a keto diet. On Lexipro, my blood sugars are getting lower and lower and I have to get off. Anyone have anything encouraging to say to me?

Please google Kelly brogan. She has so much good stuff on weening and how to make it less difficult. I think you’re weening too fast. I start my ween on the 28th and I do half, which is 5, for 6 weeks then cut by 10% every few weeks. I’m also being guided by a homeopathic dr. You need to add nutriention and have your labs looked at by a holistic md with experience in heliping people ween.
