You should consult you're doctor and see if the medicines you are taking will affect your chances of getting pregnant. If they make you sterile, then try to talk to your doctor about finding different medications that won't make you. Tell him/her that you're trying to become pregnant but it hasn't been working and see if it is because of the medicines. If not they have tests that can tell you whent the best time to try and get pregnant is. I know they sell them at the drug store. I just can't seem to remember what their called.

You should be checking with your doctor to make sure that the meds you are on will not harm a baby or prevent you from becoming pregnant. Many medications for mental illness can cause serious harm during fetal development, and your doctor can switch you over to ones that do not. You should also be carefully monitored during and after pregnancy, because the hormonal changes can make treatment very difficult.
As for why you're not becoming pregnant, it's all a matter of chance. I had a friend try for 2 years and not get pregnant. It's all about timing and luck.
