If you are not depressed because you don't have a life, can you work to get a bit of a life and see how you do? I don't think meds can help anyone if their primary problem is they don't have a life. You say you took one med prescribed and now you are self-medicating with lexapro, but I don't hear you saying either helped? I would go with working in whatever therapy to get a life -- job, school, interests, friends, own place, whatever felt best to start with.
