Dr. answered

Its safe: Lexapro is an anti depressant and also used for anxiety. Its pretty safe drug however, I would recommend to get psychological intervention as well for long term permanent solution. Learn mindfulness . I would recommend '' Acceptance commitment therapy''. Go for walk. Eat healthy food. Wish of best of luck.
