Klonopin (or Xanax) for the panic attacks and anxiety that you know and expect (going outside with daughter, going to school). Getting rid of the severe anxiety and panic symptoms would probably enable you to deal with the depression and find a better med and better therapist.
Verapamil (calcium channel blocker) is a very good med for keeping heart-rate in a healthy range and can have a very positive effect on depression.
You need to reach out for help before you feel totally overwhelmed by just trying to exist. Remeron in liquid form is something to consider. I found that Amitriptyline (a sedating TCA) had a very similar effect as Remeron in my body, although the Amitriptyline was a more powerful antidepressant and worked better on my anxiety.
Just some thoughts... We're pulling for you!
