Sorry about your troubles. Try to perk up a bit, though; this is probably a temporary situation. While you're feeling blue, try to get out a little more than usual, spend times with friends and/or family more, and put more time than usual into an activity that keeps your mind occupied with something other than your depression. That always helps me. Now, on the medical side, give the lex a chance, but if you're getting WORSE, tell your doc and ask if s/he could do a med change to help you out. I'm not a doctor or anything, but I think you might benefit from something like Remeron, which hits multiple receptors AND can be used as a sedative. Tricyclic augmentation might help, or another add on...wellbutrin, an antipsychotic, etc. Good luck!
