Are there any over the counter remedies for depression and anxiety that actually work? I’m really scared now

I suffer daily from clinical depression and anxiety. I am presently not working (since may ‘06), and staying with my boyfriend I have been with for over a year. My heavy depression is weighing him down. I can tell that he now resents me for not having a job yet here in Georgia (been here over 3 months without employment.) I truly want a job but am too physically ill most of the time to go through with the job hunt….panic attacks, dizziness, mind goes blank when someone asks me a question, so nauseated that I have to bring a bag with me wherever I go incase I need to throw up, negative thoughts and images race through my mind constantly now. I don’t know how to make myself well enough to at least appear to be competent enough to actually be hired. I visited the local mental health department and they cannot see me until October (unless I threaten suicide, which I will not). Please, can anyone tell me what over the counter meds or herbs might help me until my doctor visit?
