Stomach pain and illness causing depression...?

I have had ulcers and excess stomach acid since I was 3 years old. I am now 22. I have never been diagnosed with any specific disease, but have been given tegament, prevacid, and a few other antacids. These tend to work for a while, and then it seems to what I would call flare up. My symptoms include stomach pain (mostly in the morning) loss of appetite, and occasiaonlly diarrhea. This is getting to the point where it is hard for me to function. At one point I quit drinking coffee, pop, and eating my favorite spicy foods. This did nothing. I am usually a very happy go lucky person, but this is really brining me down. I should also mention I have some bright blood when I wipe. I have seen a doctor and am currently in the process of finidng a gastroenterologist in the area. Does anyone have any idea or similar symptoms of what this could be? I am at a loss..:(
