I have read so much about GOOD things with people with IBS taking lexapro, anyone, how long did it take to feel the full affects, do you take it at bedtime or during the day, does it interupt your sleep or help you? Anyone in put would be appreciated. Also I have tried the lorazepam (ativan) since December, prescribed .5 and was taking a quarter to a half at bedtime and my doctor told me that a quarter was like taking nothing. I am so afraid of become addicted to medication. So I have been taking a whole one as bedtime, I have severe insomnia, it helps me sleep, but I have not noticed when I take a half or whole when I'm having an IBS-D with my labor pain cramping that it has any affect, which makes me sad....I have tried Xanax, but also am afraid of becoming addicted and it really sedates me so I cannot take one during the day or even half a one.
