You could try a supplement. A few of them have been shown to have good antidepressant efficacy, like SAM-E and omega 3 fatty acids. Both can be bought over the counter.
Omega 3 fatty acids (EPA)
>1000 mg eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), Fluoxetine and EPA appear to be equally effective in controlling depressive symptoms.
