Suggest Treatment For Worsening Depression And Crying Spells

I have questions, I am having worsening depression from stress at work. I am having crying spells every day, its very difficult for me to talk about this without crying. I have had a long history of obsessive/compulsive issues. Many times I ve been depressed[deaths in family], but this is different,i can not hide it anylonger. I ve become very unhappy with work. This stress/depression has spilled over into my home life. I feel out of control of my emotions. [ I cry daily on my morning drive to work] and find it very hard to concentrate and have been frustrated with resent forgetfulness. This is new,usually I can recall several days worth of work. [I am a medical assistant in family practice for 13 years.] Not sure how to proceed, but it think its time to do something about it. [maybe medical leave]..?
