Re: SSRIs and hypothyroidism

Hypothyroidism most certainly can cause or worsen depression. Once you get your thyroid issue under control, you will be more likely to be able to get off the Lexapro. Talk with your doctor first though because Lexapro needs to be tapered off or your get withdrawl symptoms. After all anything that affects brain chemistry shouldn't be taken lightly.

Hope this helps,
