I am desperately trying to fight the care giver depression. Suggestions?

The depression from the sole caretaker of my husband with dementia is taking over even though I try to eat right, exercise when I can get the energy. Feeling kind of overwhelmed. I take Wellbutrin which definitely helps the depression but depletes my energy with no ambition. I am going back on it for the 3rd time because I seem to be tired even off of it. I hate antidepressants but what else can I do??? This is a question I know has no answers but I keep hoping.

One thing you can do is to spend at least one hour by yourself either reading, painting, knitting, or just watching TV. You have to have ME time.
