anxiety/depression

I really need a second opinion and some clarity on the homeopathic regime that I have been on as I don't know if I am having a healing crisis or if I am ill. I started seeing a homeopath in May 2007 for anxiety /depression and have had periodically had Cars 200 with other remedies including Causticum, Nat mur and Ignatia but not in that order. In Oct, I did a Nux V/Sulphur regime to help me reduce the antidepressants that I was on (seemed to go well). In early Dec 07, it felt like I had a virus sitting in my ears and got very blocked up (ENT). The ear thing just sat there. My homeopath gave me pulsatila in mid-Jan and nothing much happened. She then gave me kali bi mid-in Feb. Two days later, I felt awful -- the symptoms went in this order and one at a time -- cough, flu symptoms with temp and chills lasting two days,dryed out and dark red lips, heavy cold, vomiting, lack of appetite. Now I feel achey on my right side (this cleared up temporarily last year but has since returned). The right side thing goes from the back of my head, around the nose-corner of my right eye, into my wisdom teeth (which haven't come out), down my shoulder around to the front of my chest and down to a point in my lower back. Together with the physical symptoms, I have had a flurry of my deepest fears hitting me first thing in the morning. Ironically, before I took Kali bi, I had loads of energy and was feeling really positive. Now I feel really negative, anxious about the future and that life hasn't been the same since I took Kali Bi. I have also had some stresses and strains in the past few weeks (my job has been reduced from 4 days a week to 1 day a week and I'm single and self-employed). I am feeling really depressed, and scared about the future. I saw a different homeopath the day before yesterday and she has given me adrenal and more carsin. I'm feeling really awful and just wondered if you could tell me whether any of this sounds like a healing crisis or whether I'm suffering from depression again. The weird thing is, I felt really good energywise in Dec/Jan despite the ENT thing but its as if all the beneficial effects of the remedies I had taken last year were flushed away when I took Kali-bi. Can anyone shed any light on any of this as I'm feeling like I need to take anti-depressents again. Thanks for your help.
