I can totally relate. I saw my pdoc yesterday and felt I might need a med change. I ruminated over it for days beforehand wondering what he would come up with. It made me anxious as I wanted to do the right thing but didn't know what it was. Do I sit with the depression and wait it out a bit longer or risk a change? In the end my doctor and I decided to leave things as they are unless I worsen or get suicidal.

For you though it must be so much more stressful as it is a new psychiatrist. How were you feeling before you got depressed a few weeks ago? Is this current situation something you can manage for another month, or do you need it to change sooner? Maybe the depression will pass, or not get too bad. I really hope so. It is such a hard decision to make. Good luck with your appointment and I hope your new pdoc is a good one.
