I'm on lexapro 5mg with about 10 days and I find it great. Ive started a new job and Im able to chat to people no problem without feeling nervous at all. I did feel nervous though (alot) when i had to do a group introduction but other than that all has been good with lexapro. I did feel a bit spaced out the first few days I took it but that wore off. I have no complaints with this drug so far.

Worked for me too dude. It helped me get a grip of my fears, although the anxiety isn't gone (I wonder if I can ever be gone completely) I'm 95% anxiety free.
Seems to be alot of bad press for lexipro on here but I highly recommend it, very little side effects :)
I wouldn't relate social anxiety with a group introduction. Even the most confident people feel anxiety, I guess the difference is most people don't let it hold them back

I'm glad to hear that. I'm on Lexapro, too. I started out at 5MG and now I'm all the way up to 40MG. My anxiety has lessened so much, it's almost unbelievable. I would have daily panic attacks, while worrying and obsessing over my health. I hardly ever do that now. I still have bouts of anxiety here and there. I don't think the medication is going to cure it. But it's definitely gotten better. I'm noticing big changes. So, I'm happy with the drug, as well.
