I did some looking around and didn't really find anything negative about using it long term. You shouldn't just stop taking it, most of the anti depressants should be tapered off.

If lexapro is helping you, then I think that's wonderful. It can take a while sometimes for people to find what works for them. Discuss any questions with your doctor. :)
