Dear Sir The withdrawal symptoms of Escitalopram occurs in the first 7-10 days of stopping the medication. So, what you are experiencing is unlikely to be withdrawal symptom. Please see a psychiatrist for a further evaluation and Treatment as it is likely that your anxiety has come back please visit your psychiatrist or any other psychiatrist for further help.
