Hi and welcome to Babble.
It sounds like you've made a good decision to explore other options. I've struggled with depression my whole life, too. I finally found the right combintation of medications and therapy, and I've finally found some relief.
Not all therapies are alike, so at some point if you want to give therapy another go, you might find it more useful with a different therapist or at a different point in your life.
The meds board (Psycho-babble) is a good source of info about meds. You might check out info. there after your appt. with the psychiatrist (pdoc for short). The psychology board is a good place to read about others' therapy experiences to see what's out there. There's lots of other boards here, too.
Take your time and explore, and feel free to jump in whenever you like.
