Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hi,
Going through your query, it definitely seems you are suffering from depression. Nexito (escitalopram) is a treatment of depression. But I would strongly advice you to meet a psychiatrist before you start the medication. The dose of escitalopram may need to be adjusted later on. In addition, you have to remember that you will have to continue escitalopram for some months even after complete recovery in order to decrease any chance of relapse or recurrence.
Best Wishes.
