Lostforevermore, earlier you posted you had seen or were seeing a counselor, but that it was hard for you to be completely honest and you were/are afraid about your parents finding out how poorly you're doing. Perhaps it is time to take some of your posts, print them out, and place them in front of that counselor?

Many people, usually with help, successfully navigate depression and emerge strong on the other side. Some people will have to "manage" depression for many years or a lifetime. Six months is not that long. I think you can hope for the best, but - my opinion - you'll need help getting there.
