When couples face different outcomes from similar medications

My wife and I are both on antidepressants but hers stopped working and mine are helping me while she's getting worse, and we're in this weird place where I feel guilty for feeling better and she's resentful that the same class of drugs isn't helping her the way they're helping me.
