I’m a 45yo guy who has not had the best time of life lately and I’ve ended up under a community MH team.
They got me to see a doctor and I’ve been given 5mg of escitalopram. I’m four days in and jittery with restless legs and muscle spasms. My calves hurt!
I’d been on mirtazipine for a year a while back which made me gain insane amounts of weight so was keen not to return to it.
is this normal to start escitalopram?
