If you've been on anti-depressants for some time and the depressive fog has not lifted you should see your doctor and insist that he try some other drug or review the dosage of the existing drug.
I understand all these as well. I do my own research as well. I will feedback to my doc in next appt.

It was okay for 6 months until my doctor decided to increase my dosage.

As for now, im struggling.
