Ugh! What a jerk!
Do try to find another psychiatrist. Remember, part of depression is that feeling of helplessness. Don't make it true, you DO have power here, you have the ultimate power: you can vote with your checkbook.
That said, nortriptyline was not particularly helpful for me, either. And I, too, experienced the 'that's not a side effect' talk from a doctor (in my case, hypoglycemia from Effexor XR. Now that I've dropped the dose, I'm back to being a bit too high. {sigh})
Good luck!
