Suggest Treatment And Medication For Depression

I've been trying to get to see someone for months. I have tried so many different anti-depressants, it's hard to keep track. My family practitioner wants me to see a psychiatrist, but I have been waiting for months to see someone. I finally saw someone today. Surprise! Not a psychiatrist...someone who approves patients to see a psychiatrist. Now I have to wait a few more months to see someone else, that might recommend me to see someone that can help me with my meds. I'm not asking for controlled substances, I just have gotten worse and worse, and I only see regression from my antidepressants. I cry all night long, several times throughout the day, and typically when I wake up.
