I'm sending you an internet hug and shoulder to cry on right now.  I understand that things are tough, and I understand your feelings.  I don't like side effects of meds either.  After trying so many different anti-depressants, I found that Celexa works wonders for me; that combined with sleeping medications so I can get a good night sleep every night.  It might take a while to get the correct combo of medications for you but trust me, it's worth it.

One thing that I have been doing recently, even though I really don't feel like it all the time is journaling.  I'll open my journal and write whatever thought comes to my head.  Even it has nothing to do with what I just wrote, I keep writing.  I also write letters to people in my journal.  The letters are not meant for anyone to see, they are for me only so I can say EVERYTHING that I need to say to them without fear or keeping anything back.  It is so cathartic for me to just get that bad stuff out of my head.

I hope things turn around for you.  Everyday when you wake up, take a moment and think about one thing you are truely grateful for (kids, house, favorite t-shirt, etc).  That helps set me up on the right path in the morning time.  Keep posting and let me know how things are going for you.

I have good things about the Risperdal and I am starting it today.  What side effects did you have on the anti-depressants?
