Serotonin syndrome is a real danger. Let your pdoc know that this isn't working AND that you've been taking both together.
As for what's happening, it can be that you're one of those people who gets serotinergic apathy. I get it -- SSRIs, no matter how energizing, knock me out. I just kinda sit in one spot, staring at the wall, and thinking "someday I'll have to get up out of this chair..." You may be having a similar experience. In that case, lower doses, and augmenting with a more energizing drug may help.
Zoloft is also a more energizing SSRI, though, and it's certainly worth a try.
Good luck.
