Taking anti-depressants, for some people and under the guided supervision of a professional, is not a failure; it could be a success. If their effect is ultimately beneficial I would see that as a victory.
If you're worried about you ability to take medications consistently, ask your partner for help. I'm sure she will recognize that you're honestly trying to fix these problems that you're both concerned about.
BTW, try to take those antibiotics. I wash my meds down with something I enjoy drinking, creating a Pavlovian association between the two. "Antibiotics? Mmmm!! Grape juice!"
