If you are under 17 or so, I wholeheartedly agree with your parents. There is a reason why antidepressants are the last line of treatment for teens. The developing mind responds to external stimuli, including meds, much differently than more mature brains.
If you still want meds, I would convince your parents to come to your next appointment. Having a group session and listening to your doctor might change your parents' minds. Good luck!
