Have you talked to your doctor lately about your medication? I recall that you said you were taking something and that they increased your dosage.

It is entirely possible that you are having an adverse side effect from the medicine. In some cases, AD medicines can have the opposite effect and make you more depressed.

I'm not a doctor but I am just relaying what happened with my stbx. She took Lexapro for a month over the summer and she became even more depressed.

Regarding the business trip with the account manager. If she is single and you are attracted to her, then relax and have fun. Talking about your sitch won't make you look like a failure IMHO, as long as you don't obsess over it. Tell her what happened and how you fought for your marriage and then enjoy the rest of the trip.
