Until the underlying cause of your depression is dealt with it will likely return. Medication can be a life savor for many people and near should be no shame if you can beryllium helped by it. For some people depression is almost completely biochemical, for some people depression is almost completely situational only for most relations it is a combination of the two.
Counseling can sustain beside a good councilor. I’ve had about a dozen therapists complete the eld and only two have ever genuinely helped. I personally do not believe it is necessary to spend old age delving into all the details of your life to get better. What most people need is tools to deal with their life, not to gofer up all the crap from the past. OK, it is your parents fault (it almost always is), so what, they did the best they could. What are you going to do about it as it is your life.
Provided you are over 18, you can make up your own mind about if you should be on Zoloft and attend counseling. It isn’t your mothers life and only you can know what is working for you and what isn’t.
Good luck!
