I'll send ya some of my clonazopam (trade name Clonopin) shit works immediately, like 15-20 minutes after you take it. I was going through a child custody thing, I was so shaken up mentally that I litterally shook all over uncontrolably, my nerves were completely shot. Clonopin takes the edge away, lets you get the "real" thoughts out vs the imagined thoughts of "impending doom" that can consume you. It's a benzo, not for everybody, vary habbit forming. I also take it because of adult ADD, instead of hypractivity, in adults it can cause depression, as with me...
Doc says that I'll be on it for the rest of my life, unless something else comes along. I'm trying Stratera now, but it seems to make me sleepy after the initial stimulation wears off, but we'll see...
Woot, keep trying what the doc says, keep in close tabs with him, tons of meds, some work fine at lower doses when the initial higher dose doesn't help at all. Depression is a bitch, some peeps may make light of it and just tell you to "cowboy up!" Those peeps don't realize that to get TO that point, there needs to be a stopping point that you can gather yourself to do that. That's where the meds come in, they give you that point...
Good luck, you have many friends here, many, shit loads. Sometimes you won't feel like it, but just keep putting one foot in front of the other, do what needs to be done in your life, job wise, family wise, and keep keeping on. At some point, you can look back and say "DAMN, that was a bitch, glad it's over!"
