Maybe it's time to try changing the situation. You can take enough meds to sit in a drooling heap but there is no quality of life doing that. Depression is anger. I would imagine living in a bad situation that doesn't change would make a person angry. Then more angry. Then more angry. Depressed, more depressed and more depressed. Changing the situation and taking power over your life might ease the depression.
