While all psych drugs can help people feel better, they can also make people feel really really bad. Even drugs that start out good can end up making someone much worse many months later.
My hunch is that there is a mix of two things happening:
1. The ongoing illness.
2. One or two of the meds are bad for you and are over riding anything good the others are doing.Instead of adding to the mix or increasing doses, you might consider whittling the mix down, eliminating some that you suspect, and replacing with new fresh ones, hopefully fewer than you are on now.
Too many drugs. Can't tell what is doing what. My bet is that one or two are doing you a lot of bad right now, and that no other improvements can be made as long as they are running the show.
