>>50718Lexapro, my biggest issue is the drowsiness. It didn't happen right away, but man, it's like being on NyQuil. It helps to be careful about what time you take it, but I still have had to have caffeine pills on hand to not doze off, lol. Depression was/is a problem for me, but I was more paralyzed with anxiety, like assuming I'd fuck something up at work, the worst care scenario, etc. Lexapro has really helped me be more chill about the possible consequences of things in a realistic way. I'm only on like 5mg, 10mg makes me more depressed, lol. I just turn into a totally flat zombie. I will say that the medication also chills out your sex drive, which was kind of an unexpected bonus. My thing is that obviously I'd like sex all the time, but really I just want to be loved/appreciated. I work full time(3hr round trip commute)and do all the stuff I'm supposed to do, she's a SAHM, and we make it work barely. She's never been a really peppy girl(which I would probably get really annoyed with), but it'd be nice to get a nice hug/peck on the cheek like once a week. I compliment her for all the work she does( the house is honestly spotless), but I don't think she understands/cares how much I'm contributing, which sucks. I see tiktoks online of women whose husbands do pretty much what I do and they make his coffee/lunch, all kinds of little things to show appreciation. She won't even put my clothes away in the dresser, she just dumps them on the bed and walks away. If I'm working in the yard, watching the kids, she's doesn't come outside with water for me on hot days, she never makes lunch on weekends either. I hate to compare her to my mom, but my mom did all of that stuff and my dad didn't help her with stuff even half as much as I do. Sorry for the rant.
