Loss and depression: I would recommend that you consider working with a therapist to assess the extent of depression and establish a plan for working through loss and overcoming depression.

Therapy?: Have you yet tried any form of psychotherapy? Typically, the optimal combination of things to treat emotional issues such as depression is medication (which, on your best day, is supposed to take the edge off symptoms) but the real gruntwork takes place in psychotherapist's consulting room.

Coping with Death: The death of a parent at a relatively young age (17) can be extremely traumatic. Anger and depression are not uncommon feelings to experience. It is important to remember that there is no one "right" way to grieve. For some the grieving process takes longer than others. A psychologist or bereavement counselor can help you navigate through this difficult time.
