Good news!: Richard, glad this medication is helping with your depression. You don't mention the dose you are taking but talk with your doctor if you want to increase or decrease the dose. Generally effects can improve for up to 6 months, and then you might want to consider reducing dosage. Continue with your psychotherapy, cognitive behavioral therapy has been proven effective for depression. Good luck!
