I have been fighting allergies and subsequently depression/anxiety for many years.  I have found that when my allergies are really severe and I'm taking a lot of antihistamines that the depression gets exponentially worse.  I asked a nurse- practitioner friend of mine and she said YES, most antihistamines when you have to be on them a lot CAN cause depression and when you step down the dosage/frequency of use of them again it can cause anxiety - almost like coming off a lot of caffeine.  So I have to choose between feeling better physically/worse mentally, emotionally or vice versa ?  Why can't someone find a way to help with the allergies and not blow us all out of the water mentally ?!?  Sounds like you've found a doctor who may be able to help you; hope so !
