I can't believe that NO antidepressant worked. Personally I think he didn't want to wait until they began taking effect. Many of them take 6 weeks before they even take effect, so probably he stopped taking them before they even started working! He sounds like he's not a very patient man!
If you can talk him into trying the meds again and WAITING until they take effect, I'm SURE he'd feel better! Cymbalta only takes about 2-3 weeks before it starts working (usually) while most of the ohers are 6 wks. And yes, it CAN take a very long time to get into a therapist these days as so many people are trying to get in.  He could be put on a cancellation list tho, and when someone calcels, they'll call him, and he'd have to be ready at a moments notice tho.
I hope he contacts you, but it might be awhile. I'm sure he's actiing like this due to the depression. Depression is anger turned inward. Right now, he's OUTWARDLY angry and it sounds like he's mad at the world! It might be best to just give him space, and not try to contact him. Just stay away, and let him contact you. Wait until he cools down. God bless and please take care. Hugs, Lee
