Before you get to the where you feel more depressed and fatigued, are you getting a good response to the depression?
not really
Is the doctor going to try a higher dose? I am just trying to understand why he would give you a drug for the third time when you end up feeling the way you do. How long do you think you will keep taking it?
I planned to reach the therapeutic dose and stay there for a couple of weeks to see if it helped.
