Can lexapro cause add symptoms? I feel like this is happening to me... Also. I have been on it 7 months and have gained 13 pounds. have a hard time getting out of bed or getting anything done .. Libido is gone. Just kind of frustrated being on this drug. It has def helped with anxiety . just kind of feel down about my weight gain and the fact I just can't get anything done or be motivated . I'm also so spacey . will be letting my dr know my concerns soon..

Tried Lexapro for one day years ago, and it was totally demotivating. I can't speak to other ADHD symptoms because I didn't do anything but stare at the cieling and I had them anyways and it obviously didn't help.

I wouldn't call it ADD, its more like an "amotivational syndrome." look it up...its associated with ssri drugs, in general...

Those do all sound like Lexapro side effects unfortunately.
