I am so sorry about your loss. I lost my cocker spaniel about 5 yrs to cancer and it felt like i lost a kid. I was on medication at the time too. When i look back now, i found that i got through that time because of my cat. I wasnt even close with him at all until after my dog passed, then he was there for me. And to this day, I still love "felix" for that. But, even on meds, things that are emotionally tramatic can throw u into a major depressive episode. I would talk to your doc and perhaps add a mood stablizer or something like that for now....
Good luck and remember your pet is always with you!! heart and spirit...
