Hi Amelia,
Though I'm usually too exhausted to post regularly, I thought I should probably offer some advice to a fellow St. Paulite in need.
My 2 cents: Since Prozac has worked so well (albeit inconsistently) for you in the past, I would recommend restarting it and (after stabilizing on it at the maximum tolerated dose) augmenting it with desipramine or nortriptyline. I'm not aware of tricyclics being especially likely to induce psychosis in a unipolar depressive. (Any AD, of course, could switch a bipolar to mania.)
Good luck!
