In six months, I bet you come back to this post and say, wow, I was depressed, wasn't I? Procrastination, no joy in something that should be good and fulfilling, calling yourself names, etc. etc. CHECK CHECK CHECK Gawd it sucks and I am sorry that you're struggling with it. And Depression lies. Something I've had to remind myself of a lot lately in the slough of despair, so to speak. So definitely speak to the doc -- there are lots of later generation SSRIs that work very well and may have better side effect profiles. You've had a great run with the one you're on and were responsive to therapy so another one might very work even better, and a lower dose.
So congratulations on being nearly there, that's amazing and awesome, and there's only one more hurdle and you are done! And then new, exciting things to be found though yes, job hunting does suck.
