    You don't necessarily need to up the dose. Lots of people recover on lower doses... 10 mg was always enough for me.

    I'm guessing your gp has told you that 20mg is the 'therapeutic dose', but actually not everybody needs that.

    It's early days to be feeling better on any dosage, given that you've been only taking for a week.

    I would give it two weeks minimum before upping the dose to give your body time to adjust.

    My phychiatrist says there is no therapeutic dose of ssris is what suits you.
