Get yourself immediately evaluated by a cardiologist as it can be independent symptoms from your depression. Do not force your wife for sex, if she is not willing. But since you are active there are many ways in which you can satisfy the same. The medications appear good, but attend review regularly for blood tests to find if things are normal. All the best.

Hii,
Happy for you that you are under treatment for OCD.
Just want to say you that don't take any medicine by your own. You need to consult with your previous psychiatrist because he knows your symptoms very well .I think do follow up with the Dr. & ask him. That will help you definitely.
Thank you, have a nice day.

If you have doubts about the correctness of the diagnosis you have at least 2 options
i) ask for some time from the doctor (and offer to pay fair charges for the time allotted to you) and request the doctor to explain the diagnosis to you and why he makes that diagnosis in your case.

Bipolar depression is very different to normal unipolar depression and need very specific treatment. The treatment you are taking if not helping you, you need to take a second opinion from another psychiatrist nearby or online. I am sure you can easily get out of this depression with right treatment. I need more information regarding your illness history which is necessary to provide you perfect treatment. Consult a psychiatrist with detailed history for better treatment. All the best.
