Medication. -

So I am currently on Sertraline. I've previously been on anti-depresents, Prozac, trazadone and citalopram and now obviously, Sertraline. I've had lower doses and they'll all been upped. I've also been on anti psychotics, Respirdone and Arripiprazole. Thing is, I haven't found any of them very beneficial. I've been on Sertraline for over six weeks now and things aren't getting better. It was just today I was in a&e from on overdose and I need something to change. For me medication is a big deal. I get scared it will change me as a person and that it's just numbing my feelings and sooner or later I will have to come off it and they'll come back again. But after seeing a few psychiatrists and doctors, they're all telling me I need to keep trying medication until we find the right one because 'I need it.'
But what's the point when none of them are working? I don't know whether I should completely stop medication for a while or what. Does anyone have any advice. I feel really lost about all of this right now. Any personal experiences are welcome.
Thankyou.
