Do you find yourself having constant racing, uncontrollable thoughts? I experienced this for years, admittedly with depression mixed in such that a depressive thought would trigger anxiety about my ability to change things in my life, which would reinforce the depression. Because of this I once had a panic attack in one of my favorite places and started me crying in public. I have also had moments where I started to believe that I was literally sub-human and that I stank no matter how clean I tried to get myself. What has helped me is an anti-psychotic called Latuda (lurasidone). It is absurdly expensive in the US, but insurance will usually cover most of it. It has helped rein my crazy in and get things done, and I would not have graduated without it. Maybe this only applies to my somewhat unique brain, but starting it reduced both the number of meds I take and the total amount of meds I take. I can't be sure it would help you, but if your experience lines up with mine maybe ask your doctor about it.
