I've found that the combination of therapy and medication have been helpful managing my depression. The meds help balance of the chemical imbalance and therapy teaches me coping skills.

You have to actually utilize therapy for it to work. Just showing up isn't enough...least not enough to combat the depression. There is no quick fix either. It takes time and effort. If you're not willing to invest in your mental health, then therapy won't work for you.

You also have to find a good T.
