Hi:
In your quote,... your husband has been on 4 different ADs for his depression along with Anxiety. However, it sounds to me like those meds. are NOT helping his condition. You didn't mention what form of depressionm plus what form of those ADs, ... however nowadays, there are a lot of effective meds. to get him back to 'old himself'/normal or semi-nomalcy.' Under this situation, you and your husband needs to work HARD on medications' issues. Complaining and puzzling over his condition won't help you including the family, in the first place.
The very first step is to find more competent and experienced psychiatrist for his condition, because his depression and other mental condition seems pretty SERIOUS, then the un-experienced pdoc. might NOT pin-point to prescribe appropriate AD meds. your husband's condition needs. Try to ask any reputable hospital, even local Mental Hospital for referral. There are good pdocs., but not TOO many, then it might take awhile of finding a pdoc., ... but keep asking/looking for a right pdoc. for the sake of your husband's well-being, because medications are a BIG TOOL for your husband to feel well!
