I was on Celexa and doing well, but my insurance company wouldn't cover it, so I swithced to Effexor (225 mg).
It helped my depression, but I was so tired I couldn't function.
So I'm back on Celexa, and feeling OK (not great, but OK).
Therapy may benefit you since your depression seems to increase when you return home to an empty house.
I've been there.... and I feel for you.
This may sound strange, but have you considered a dog?
There's almost nothing better than walking into an empty house to a dog (or two in my case) who is bursting at the seams with happiness to see you!!Plus they make you focus on them immediately instead of the house, so it helps alleviate some of the anxiety of "ok i'm home alone, what do I do now?"
