Q: Lexapro Causing More Anxiety

I've recently started taking lexapro for the 2nd time (after taking a break from all depression/anxiety meds) and this time it seems that my anxiety is extremely worsened once I started the meds. It didn't happen the first time I was on lexapro...It seemed to help the anxiety the first time around. Does anyone else have this problem?
