A member asked:
Scared to death to start lexapro (escitalopram) 10mg. just reading the side effects of the medicine is causing me dread. is there natural ways to cure hyperchondria?

Yes, there are: It is sadly uncommon to find both a patient and provider who'd rather try non-drug treatment - but you've got half of it in yourself. Hopefully you'll find the other half. Targeted talk therapy is often effective for that issue. Interview therapists to find one willing to work w/ you on it. I hope (and expect) that you'll succeed.
