Yes, not on your own...how long have you been on it? If you have only been on it for a week or so the reason you do not feel any better is because it take about 2weeks to a month for antidepressants to actually take effect, you need to let it build up in your system.

If this is not the case then please, call your physician and set up an appointment, this is not something you should attempt by yourself.
