Some thoughts: Speak to prescribing doctor about higher dose and if you might have seasonal affective disorder especially as Fall begins. Also see your pcp to check vit. D level, thyroid and other medical factors that may contribute to depression. If all is normal, consider seeing a mental health professional for guidance.
