Hi everyone, this is my first time to post so I hope it ends up in the right place! I have always suffered with bad anxiety even as a child, it all came to a about 9 months ago when I started getting some truly awful thoughts about harming myself, I lived in terror for weeks as I was terrified of going to the doctor as I've a 3yr old son, I thought he would be taken from me, this made it all worse. Eventually I plucked up the courage to go to the doctor and get help, ive been on lexapro ever since, on 15mg at the moment. I still have my bad days but mostly good. I feel it's time I started to reduce my dose but the thoughts of going back to that dark place reduce me to tears. I was wondering if any of you have any success stories or advice for me? It would be much appreciated xx
