Well, after just over 6 weeks at 20 mg with little success, I am being bumped to 40 mg. I was actually given 40 mg tablets, otherwise I would try slowing increasing to 30 mg first, and then 40 mg. I am worried about the side effects of such a jump in dosage, but I am also getting pretty overwhelmed by the depression, so I need to find something that will work.
Is there an end to this? The doctor had mentioned that if this doesn't work, he is going to start me up on Effexor, which I've heard is a real pain to come off of. Not enjoying this at all!
