Long may it last for you but it sounds very much like you may be augmenting. Symptoms starting earlier in the day etc. Whatever you do do NOT be tempted to increase the dose again. Read up all you can on this site about augmentation so you know what to look out for. This links below are a starting point

Hi highlighters did you start with the evening dose first? If so why did you need to add in the 2 o'clock dose?

Hi,

I am prescribed 2x 1mg a day and I find taking one at about 2 pm then one at about 7 pm works best ok for me
