Depression With Bad Mood Swings And Weight Gain. On Zoloft. Any OTC Medication To Help Reduce Depression ?

Hi I'm a 30 year old female, 5'7'',245lbs. and recently divorced...my ex-husband removed me from our medical insurance before I could get my last prescription filled for Zoloft 50mg but took two pills (100mg total dose daily).
I don't have a job that I can buy meds offline and I will be going Tuesday to a wellness center that I can apply for aid from a pharmacy that donates to people that can not financially afford there medications.

so my question is, if I don't get approved...what could I take over the counter to help with my depression in the mean time till I can get medical coverage again and get back on Zoloft again? I have been feeling horrible mood swings and the weight gain over the past year has sucked but I rather function without crying and fatigue all the time....
