Keep a mood log because it is hard to remember how you have been doing and to even guage it one day to the next. For me I start slowly coming out of it over two weeks and then one day just snap out of it like a switch went off. That has more to do with my cycles then meds though. With meds it is more gradual.
Every morning in my mood log I type how I slept, how rested I feel, how my mood is, how I did the day before. How did I eat and how was my appetite. How much did I sleep. Did I get out of the house...etc. you can look back over your log and see if you are improving.
