How long for increase to take effect?

[Mojo61]

Hey guys. I've been on 10mg for 3 months and on 2/7 I increased to 20mg. Will it still take just as long for the increase to work as it did the first time on 10mg?

I think it really depends on the person; you can never quite tell. In my case, it was a gradual process, so gradual that I barely noticed it to be honest, and this was all the way up 40mg! However, I tell you when I abruptly came off it, and months and months afterwards (around 6 months), I felt much worse and back to how I felt before I was on it again. It's a strange thing, because our mental heath is so central to how we feel and think, we don't even always notice it changing until we're right back where we were before.
