In my case when I was taking my medications for depression, fluoxetine for genetic Prozac 20mg/day, it helped me so much such as to the point where I felt I no longer needed them. Depression is a very serious phsycological condition and if not treated it can bring a person to the point of suicide. I would recommend that if you believe OP that a it might be necessary to be on these, you should give it a try. I would, I have been there for 14 yrs. and If I had to put myself through medication, I would do it all over again.

Good luck.
