Richard,
what kind of combo did you react negatively to? I reacted quite negatively to a combo of SNRI (Serzone) with an ssri (Luvox). I tried to go back to just an effective dose of Serzone, felt that I had heart palpitations and trouble breathing every time.
the one thing that's given me improvement -- in addition to experimenting until I found a drug that didnt' cause a hypersensitive reaction -- was exercising daily and following a strict diet plan (nothing refined, etc.).
it is possible that drugs did negatively affect your brain, but that you can build it up. this depression is likely caused by something organic that WILL heal itself if you feed your brain good food and give it a chance.
But I know what it is to feel so hopeless, that suffering is endless. The one thing that keeps me going in those times is the consideration that if there is life after death, I may still have the suffering in some shape or other -- so I have to just get through it now.
Good luck,
