What ive learned is that you have to do stuff to keep you mind focused. Depression hurts everywhere physically and mentally its also causes others stuff like lack of interest and not wanting to interact with others. You have to get your mind out of that state and try to consume your time doing stuff. It could be anything from just taking a small walk everyday to lifting weights. Taking medication helps with symptoms but it does not cure depression. I went through therapy after i lost my dad to cancer and pretty much just kept myself isolated for many months. I didnt want to talk to anybody and didnt want to go out. I eventually saw a doctor and got on medication and started making myself do stuff but it was hard. I found that making a list of to do's in the morning sure helped me out alot. Just make sure to keep seeing your doctor and tell him everything even if you think it sounds stupid. Find someone you can talk to without holding back. Even if it means someone on online. Just don't give to much info like your address and what not. Good luck buddy you can do it.
