    Hang on in there. It's early days still for you but you will get there.  When the dose is upped you go backwards for a bit but it will get better.  I have been on 40g for about 2 years now and it's like getting your life back.  You will have some days when you feel like it's too much, but trust me it does get better week by week and month by month you will start to feel yourself again or like me feel even better.
