is 20mg not helping at all. ?
chances are that increasing will bring on side effects again. same as when you started but maybe not so intense or last as long x it's possible you wont get any side effects as many don't but the only way to know for sure is when you do increase x
6 weeks is still pretty early as some people don't see much improvements before 6 weeks as it's still pretty early days for a lot of people x

Hi Gianneli/ what dosage where you on.And please note that you should not changed dosage for at least 10/12 weeks,so by going up a dose you will most likely get the same side effects as if you started again.How old are you?

20mgs is supposed to be the highest dose for anyone over 50 i think.
