I'm sorry about the stressors you have to deal with. They can definitely present themselves as an increase of both depression and anxiety. What's more, both of these conditions are going to magnify and make overwhelming any bad news that comes by.
You might have mentioned this before, but Effexor and Paxil are particularly good for GAD. I am nervous about mentioning Lyrica because a minority of people have reacted to it by making their depression worse - myself included. Buspar works well for some people, but this is probably the exception rather than the rule. Don't discount it, though. Nardil would probably work. This drug is a work-horse and treats a variety of psychiatric conditions, including unipolar depression, bipolar depression, OCD, GAD, and social anxiety/phobia.
