Drug Withdrawal????

Has anyone here ever been on Lexapro or an SSRI? My p/tdoc wanted me to go to every other day 10mg but this morning I couldn't do that. My hands were ice cold and felt all tingly so I was wondering if that was a sign of withdrawal. I took 10mg of lexapro and it stopped.


ANyone else ever experience anything like this?

Hugs & Prayers,

Danielle,


I've been on Lexapro off & on, but don't recall having any problems when I stopped taking it--however, I have had problems with both my hands and feet tingling and feeling frostbitten for sometime, so maybe I did and didn't realize it.
