I'd suggest not hinting anything-tell the doc you're depressed and how you feel about SSRI's. I say this from experience: I told my doc the same thing about 7 years ago when I was having a very hard time. She charmed me into taking an SSRI anyway and I'll be forever grateful-it turned my life around.
When you talking to your doc, think about it like you've just gone into a store, "I'm going to a party and I need a shirt that is XXX color and doesn't have XXX, because that doesn't work for me".
You are the customer at the doc's-think of it that way. can you imagine going to a store and the clerk saying, "well, I'm NOT going to sell you a green shirt because I personally don't like green shirts..." You'd go to a different store, if you get the analogy.
