I'm a firm believer if you've spent a couple of weeks at your target dose and you are questioning weather your antidepressant is working (it is not). I know how it feels to sike your self up to start a new medication and how much you want it to work. It can take a while to find what is going to work for you but it can be done. Id encourage you to talk to your doc. I feel your pain and wish you all the best.
