    Hi. i am also 16 weeks in and still having blips. My dose was increased 6 weeks ago and i think that can affect things too.

    im trying to remember that when i first started taking them how i couldn't even get out of bed i was so depressed whereas now im getting out and functioning and that it is a slow process and the blips seem to be getting further apart.

    i hope the blips get less and less for you as time goes on.

      thank you so much yogi! yes unfortunately increasing the dose in some cases causes a return of side effects and blips, many people say that when you change doses you reset the timeline. it sounds like you are improving and when i look back to where i started i see that i have improved greatly too. i hope our blips completely vanish soon!
