Hi March2017. Welcome to Psych Central. Your decision to see a psychiatrist is wise in my opinion. Whenever a med is not doing what it is prescribed for, it is prudent to call the psych doctor and tell them. I leave it to their professional opinion as to what steps to take. Sometimes they change the dose or change the med or add a med. It is really a very technical and skilled decision to diagnose and prescribe psych meds. You may get others opinions and that can be helpful to know but every person reacts to meds differently. Because of all this I would recommend seeing a psychiatrist and following their recommendations for the amount of time they say it will take to have an effect. Then if the condition still is troublesome, then give them another call. This is a slow subtle process and takes time for the body and mind to adjust to changes in meds.
