A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depression: Unfortunately you are not telling us what you've been on and how you were diagnosed with depression. There are different types of antidepressants that act through different pathways, they take a few weeks to reach therapeutic levels in your system and they don't work for everyone. Your psychiatrist will need to re-evaluate your diagnosis and treatment based on your response. Be patient.
