Well, I'm a relatively long-time Lexapro user and I think my sense of humor and my ability to laugh is still intact.
In fact, I think I find it easier to laugh nowadays. But that's just me.
It's different for everyone. Looks like I'm in a minority here, as a satisfied Lexapro user, but, there you have it. I sympathize with those of you for whom it hasn't worked out, I guess my particular brain chemistry & what-have-you are compatible w it. I hope you've been able to find something else suitable, be it drug or talk therapy. I did talk therapy for a while but it didn't work well for me - maybe it was the therapist I was seeing, but this was before trying Lexapro. I'm not inclined right now to try talk thereapy again, but I'll never say never ...
(To be honest I was rather hesitant to talk about my experiences with the drug, but since the trend on this thread was somewhat negative, I thought I would add my own positive experience as a counterpoint. Who knows, maybe I'm the only satisfied Lexapro user out there ...
