Definitely give it more time. One day is nothing.. I'd say give it a couple of weeks, and of course, go up on the medication.
I'm on Parnate 40mgs now. I felt mild improvements within the first 2 weeks, and another improvement when a small dose of 5mgs of adderall was added.
My doctor is going slow because I have hypotension, but we're trying everything and giving each dose/augmenter enough time to "kick in" and start doing what it's supposed to do.
I know depression sucks, and I've had my own days of complete hopelessness over ever finding something, but one day is really very little to make such a judgment. Once you get to 40-60mgs and augment, then you can start to worry whether it's going to work or not.
Best of luck
