Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic

I think, you need combination of antidepressant. If you were my patient, i would have kept you on venlafaxine with mirtazapine along with psychotherapy. You need supportive therapy or CBT, that would help you to come out of depression. In case, you need further help, you can consult me any time.

Thanks
