What do i do about my self-destructive habits?

I've been diagnosed with MDD and GAD, (depression and anxiety) but just have not improved over the past 3 years. Not counselling, anti-depressants, opening up to people, getting out and doing things, exercise.. Nothing helps.
I know that for the sake of my family, I NEED to improve and have a happy healthy life. But.. I guess my question is; How can I do that, if I don't actually want the help anymore?
I just want to sit in a corner for a few weeks, and then inevitably end up.. well.. killing myself, as morbid as that sounds.
I just need some advice. Please. Anything is appreciated.
I've tried it all, and I'm just so sick of it.

    im exactly like that, the only thing that ever helped was the last girl i dated, i actually felt happy while i was dating her but we broke up and that made everything alot worse, its hard to find the motivation to even try to ask out girls or anything, the only reason i started dating her is that she asked me out, but you could try getting into a relationship, that helped me for a while.

      I actually am in a relationship at the moment. I am happy and do love this person, but there are a few unresolved issues that have been looked at and spoken about, but inevitably, just need time to heal.

      Thank you for the suggestion though. I appreciate it.

    It may be your prescriptions making you suicidal.

      I'll have a look at changing them. Thanks for the tip.

    Maybe you need to have your medications adjusted? Also it's possible that you may need to find a new therapist and or be screened for additional mood disorders. I don't blame you, but please don't give up on yourself.

    I hope you don't mind my asking, but I'm curious as to whether or not you have any active addictions?

      I could look into doing that. I've changed medications and psychologists before, but I'd be up for giving it another swing.

      And that's fine of you to ask. I don't really have any addictions unless you count cigarettes. I do smoke pot, however am capable of going without for periods of time.
