Exploring the Impact of Medication on Mental Health

Experiences with medication can vary greatly. Some people have found that their anxiety medication, such as Lexapro, has been a huge help and made their anxiety pretty much vanish, despite initial side effects like stomach ache or dry mouth. Others have felt that medication numbed them or worsened their depression and anxiety. Some people feel more structured and quiet when on medication, almost like an entirely new person. There are also those who have had minimal bad experiences with meds and found them to be very helpful for their mental health. However, it's also noted that finding the right medication can involve trial and error, as not everything works for everyone.
