Its an SSRI

Im 5.7ft at 15 and im hella neurodivergent and have severe anxiety and ocd but the least i can do is switch to 10mg escitalopram.

My parents are 5.6ft and 5.9ft. Moms side hella tall.

Should i just cut the pills to half myself jfl so it becomes 10mg

imo no evidence it stunts growth , that's not a thing ssris do for the most part. ur already at or above midparental height so you're probably close to done anyway. cutting to 10mg yourself is fine, but dropping dose without telling your doctor is risky because ocd specifically needs good dosing to actually work and 10mg often isn't enough.
If you really want to grow make sure your plates are open if they are

If it helped I'd appreciate if u could mark as a solution( ☑ not the thumb ) ❤️

They actually apparently do lower igf 1 and maybe even gh. I would gladly hop on peptides IF i knew where to get them, ill tell the doctor aswell but bro, i have good bone structure and mandible growth, lab tests are literally PERFECT, i cannot waste these good genetics (except for the nd traits). I know its gonna probably fuck me up but bro i do not wanna stunt my growth. I am already fucking terrified.
