I'm not sure there is any obvious course of action to take here, but I just want to say I'm sorry to hear that you're struggling so much with this issue, and I hope you can find something that helps.
It would pay to take a step back here and think about the whole picture; about what ways other medications, and your life circumstances, could also be affecting how you're feeling.
It sounds like trying to experiment with any changes in medication / dose is likely to make things worse rather than better in the short term, and I can understand why a doctor would be hesitant to make any changes; it's one thing to experiment with your own medication, but it's another thing to experiment with someone else's.
I'd like to remind you too that if things do get to the point where you are a danger to yourself, visiting the Emergency Room is appropriate. While I can't in good conscience suggest that you seek hospitalisation unless it is absolutely necessary, a presentation to the ER is a strong sign to your doctor that the status quo is not working.
