Hi. I'm new here...

Hi, everybody.
I just joined today. I'm clinically depressed, in therapy, and on an anti-depressant that doesn't work (I'm in between psychiatrists). I'm having a harder time than usual right now- partly b/c I'm in college and finals are right around the corner. I don't respond to stress well AT ALL. I don't really have a specific question at the moment... I really just need some support. I'm hopeless right now, and I can't seem to cheer myself up. What do you do when you feel yourself getting more and more depressed? How do you help yourself? I have a wonderful boyfriend who tries so hard to help me out, but he's always busy, so he can't always be here with me. He's very concerned though (as he should be- I took a lot of pills with a lot of alcohol a few days ago in an attempt to...? I don't know what it was an attempt to do...) Anyway, any words of wisdom on managing stress and helping with hopelessness?? (Sorry this posting is so disjointed; I've been really out of it lately.)
