Im experiencing withdrawals from running out of my escitalopram 20mg from a few days ago. been using it every day for over a year. i just got my refill for it and took a pill now. how long will it take for the withdrawals to stop? thank you so much?

You should start to feel back on track within a maximum of 7-10 days. The temporary effect of missing several days should subtly and steadily ease.
