Yes, I would recomend a break from SSRIs.
I too hit a brick wall like you describe with SSRIs, and nothing seemed to work untill I discontinued them. To note though, I do get apathy from even small doses of clonazepam. Gabaergics can supress stem cell proliferation which may, over time, simply make the brain more stagnant / less alive.
Methylphenidate is working for me right now in monotherapy. I am happy.
Simpler is better IMHO.
