Lexapro is for anxiety and depression mostly. It can also be used to intensify the effects of other antidepressents. I take it along with Welbutrin.

It is for depression and anxiety and can be used for OCD.
However, these types of drugs are contraindicated for bipolar disorder as they can throw a person into mania.

My sister calls it her anti-b*tch pill.
She went on it cause she was always in a b*tchy mood, it has helped a lot.
