Which is fine if what you go back onto works otherwise you might as well take a sugar pill. How long have you been back on escitalopram this time and how long at 15mg? Is it having a positive effect?

It made me worry that he was adding in that sort of medication, there's no mention of it on any of the sub threads that I could see. Which made me think it wasn't used a lot.
It is reasonably common if an AD is working, but falling a little short of 100% effectiveness. Imo, it shouldn't be added to an AD that is doing little on its own.
