Ok so I am wondering, I originally was getting panic attacks so I started taking Lexapro and it went well for 8 months then I came off Lexapro for 6 months and I managed well but I noticed when something bad went on in my life the anxiety would slowly creep back and my figiting was alot worse off the meds.. I have recently got back on my tablets and feeling alot better again so my question is if I decide to stay on them will I have to keep upping my dose throughout my life and what are the risks???
