Has it improved at all? If there has been a slight improvement, then go for a dose increase. There really is no upper limit, except that dictated by side effects.

How long have you been taking 20 mg per day? For a year? If you've been on 20 mg per day for at least eight weeks, with slight improvement, I'd bump it up to 40 mg per day.
