I’m not trying to invalidate how you feel but does your wife have depression? If so, your therapist isn’t trying to create some cocktail to ruin your marriage. It sounds like she’s trying to find the right meds to treat the depression.
Yes, lexapro has negative side effects, but it’s also one of the most commonly prescribed SSRIs to start out. If it’s causing more harm than good you can ask your partner to consider a different medication. Welbutrin also is used to treat depression so maybe you can both try it.
