I would approach this with a little bit of caution. I don't think you need to call 911 unless you are having suicidal ideations, or extremely severe panic attacks.
You did not mention how long you have been having problems, nor exactly what led to the Prozac. Personnaly, Prozac at 40mg caused me too many sexual side effects (I'm male). If you have no energy, perhaps that is not the best med of choice.
Wellbutrin would get you going, but would not help your appetite, unless the lack of interest for food is based mostly on feeling so depressed.
I certainly would get to a Pdoc, and shop around until you find the right one for you. You may or may not benefit from psychotherapy in its traditional sense unless this is your first incidence of a major depressive illness.
You have many options. But dont' wait around too long, make the appointment ASAP so that you can begin to feel better.
Good Luck!
