Hi, crystal!
You should at least be seeing some, if not all, the improvements by now. You'll want to talk with your doctor about your options such as an off-label dosage increase, the addition of another medication like Abilify or Rexulti, or a switch to a different medication.
Best regards and I hope you're feeling better soon.
