Dear client You have not disclosed details of diagnosis and treatment. You maybe suffering from depression. If you are not responding to the treatment  there could be factors beyond your control  that are responsible.
Next Steps
plz discuss with your psychiatrist (I am  assuming you are taking psychiatrist' consultation) whether change in schedule or dosage or diagnosis is warranted.
Health Tips
Alongside  you should undergo personality assessment and basic blood test esp. for anemia , vitamin B12 level and thyroid function. If you already have reports revert back to me.

Hello, Depression without recovery even when you are compliant can be due to some other underlying condition. It can be due to thyroid, vitamin abnormality, bipolar mood disorder etc.. Sometimes we miss out hypomania episode as depression covers it. A mood chart will benefit you in that. Adding a mood stabilizer like lithium will cover your bipolar illness and augment your antidepressant treatment as well.
Next Steps
Consult nearby psychiatric clinic or you can consult me for further help required

Hello Sorry to hear that the treatment isn’t working for you. It could be due to a multiple interplay of reasons but initially it would be better to know that are you on only counselling (therapy) or medication as well. In the case of the option that both are being simultaneously applied, there is a possibility that the result isn’t there as 1. The medication has not suited you 2. You and the therapist aren’t on the same page 3. Diagnosis may need reconsideration 4. Trial of medicine is too short or inadequate I would urge you to see your existing doctor and discuss this with him to her
Next Steps
Be strong, try to develop your coping mechanisms for depression.
Health Tips
This too shall pass
