    That seems like a really low dose.

    I started at 50 mg and was raised to 100 mg, but it took me a while to get settled.

    It's been about 6 months, and I'm much better.

    Good luck.

    You guys think I should talk to the doctor to raise it up to 50? Or just stay at 25 for now

      Please consult with your doctor before increasing your dose.

      Always do increases in small increments.

    Ten days very short time to be on any antidepressant, you need to evaluate after six was. Hang in
