Have you tried Luvox (fluvoxamine)? If so, how did it affect you? Luvox has some mild antidepressant properties along with its anti-OCD effects. It has been shown to be effective for psychotic depression.

Take it slow if you can. I know how difficult it is to not play with medication when you are not happy with your present state. The thing is, you have to allow enough time for a new homeostasis to settle in before you see any kind of enduring improvement.
