I agree with Stefano, you need a pdoc you can talk to and who you trust to go through medication options with. It sounds like you need more help with the depression side of things. How long do your new drugs take to have an effect?
DBT - related to CBT - dialectical behavioural therapy - has been brought up elsewhere on the site. It's central theme is 'making a life worth living' and a number of good hospitals near where I live have DBT programs. Emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal relationships and ... something else that I've forgotten. Practical ways to deal with mental illness.
Hang in there!
