I can't remember the ramp-up, exactly, but believe I felt it little at 30 and then definitely at 40. (Viibryd was a very clear and somewhat immediate pathway to episodes of real rage for me, though.) in the end, I stopped B because it felt too powerful for the dosing, as though if I could have titrated differently maybe I could have controlled these side effects. I knew it was a very new drug, and felt like there wasn't enough information out yet - for my purposes.
I do believe B gave me a voracious appetite. I don't know whether it actually *made* me eat more (maybe poor willpower?), which became a steady weight gain, or whether that was some other thing going on for me. Happened with Viibryd too.
Good luck to you!

I'm an optimist, but I carry an umbrella. Or 2. Sometimes 3.
