I have been using escitalopram for a while now and I seem to get really amazing effects from it. When I first started taking it I felt like I was rolling on MDMA for probably 2 weeks straight. It honestly was the best I have felt in a long time. I even had CEVs, minor hallucinations, and dilated pupils (it would usually hit in the middle of the night like a freight train).

I have been trying to recreate that effect and I have been mildly successful but not quite the same as the first time I did it. I have tried reducing my dose from 10 to 5 for a few days and that worked at first to get the stimulant effect and euphoria back for a day or two.
I also found taking caffeine, theanine, and tyrosine after reducing to 5 then going back up to 10mg worked but again only for a day or two. Alcohol also mixes extremely well with it for some reason. It feels absolutely amazing. Obviously the longer I stay on the meds the more the effects diminish and eventually after 3-4 weeks there is basically no noticeable effects.

Anyone else ever have these effects or know anything about this? Right now I completely tapered off them and am trying a small break entirely before resuming to see if I can get the effects back. I cannot find much info at all about anyone else having these effects similar to what I have been getting. Most people describe the side effects very badly and people say the withdrawal is terrible but the only bad effects I have noticed is a bit of insomnia and dry mouth. Otherwise everything has felt really really great like I have been taking a small dose of mdma 24/7.

No. I take 10mg and day and it simply keeps me from spiraling into a negative thought patterns that haunt my every waking moment. The stuff turned my life around.

Do you not find the effects just simply go away after several weeks though? Like after 3 weeks the only thing I get out of it is mildly better sleep patterns.
It's only during the initial "come up" that it actually feels good and is very noticeable.

I have done a lot of ecstasy, mdma, lsd, dxm, etc and this is obviously no where close to as powerful but obviously no psych lasts a week+ at a time like escitalopram does.

Unfortunately the tolerance seems to build very fast and due to the long half life it seems near impossible to lose tolerance.
