Sorry to hear you are feeling so bad.
I realized after going off my meds (serzone and klonipin) that I simply had to be on medication. It was difficult to accept at first because I was doing pretty well without them but then the depression and anxiety came back. I also know about feeling like being on a merry-go-round with the drugs. I've been on lamictal and xyprexa for a while now and feel better but this was after many months of trying many different meds:
lexapro, effexor xr, pamelor, abilify, prozac, remeron, and depakote. I had bad side effects from all of them. None of these was making me feel better so I was on effexor which helped a little so I'm trying to wean off it.I would suggest that you talk to your doc and see if you can try something new.
Hope you feel better soon.
