I'm really new to this and to the board so maybe you've already been there on this idea, but when I was first diagnosed "depressed" I was given an anti-depressant. One after another they made things worse! Increased anxiety, horrid shakes and tremors, paranoia, sick, sick, sick. Finally they tried an antipsychotic and a mood stabilizer and they worked! (at least by far better than the AD alone). So my Dr. used that phenom to rediagnose me as Bipolar 2 and that's where I am at now.
Just food for thought in case you haven't already
