This was the best single treatment I have tried for MDD. But alone it did make me want to sleep 10 hours a night. Added Buproprion for additional energy and to obtan more complete relief from Depression.

Advice & Tips
I have been more depressed & upset lately due to added health issues, so I don't feel that the Lexapro helps me a lot when I am really depressed; so I don't know if it is me or the drug. I really don't think any drug can help you all the time.
