    16 weeks on 10mg and I felt I had preserved enough with blips that were getting worse. Upped to 20mg and immediately felt better. That was the start of June. I've had a few minor blips since then.....one a couple of weeks ago but I was going through a bit of stress. Generally from the increase at 16 weeks I have felt a lot better.

    I am seeing my GP this week (I made the appt a couple of weeks ago during my blip)

    I feel a lot better again but will take my lead from him.
