Very tough situation. My depression ended up causing me to drop out of college and ended up being a plumber. I had no idea I had depression. All I knew was that I could get straight A's in calculus, chemistry, and physics one semester and all D's the next. I figured I was a lazy bum failure and had to get away from my parents and all of it.

Don't give up on school or professional school. If it takes longer so what. If you have to take a break so what. Given you history it sounds like you are predisposed but stress and situation play a very large role. As to whether you should finish this next semester or take a break is a tough call. Your so close. If you take a break, so what. Go back and finish.

I would highly suggest intensive therapy, meditation, mindfulness, CBT, exercise, diet, a number if non med means. But these take a while to work. Whether you want to keep trying the med game is up to you. You may find something that works real good but it is not fun finding it.
