In emergency you can call the Samritans - or in a case of emergency you can go to A&E. There should always be a duty pdoc there.
I came off Proxac (fluoxetine) because it reduced my sex drive, quetiapine because of its sedative effect.
My only observation would be that changing meds very often is not a terribly good idea for the very reason that it is difficult to see whether they are having an effect.
I hope this helps.
