One last point about ADs. With certain drug classes one is going to get a gradual response. With APs one will notice the action of a little of the drug and with more of the drug one will get more of a response. This holds for benzos too.

The story however is I think different for ADs. A little doesn't produce any antidepressant effect. A threshold must be reached before one gets any antidepressant response. 10 milligrams of Zolfot by and large has no antidepressant action whatsoever whereas 50 milligrams of Zoloft can end depression.
