People rarely cry for no reason. Crying = hurt. Anger with no object is often just a way to cover up the hurt.
So who hurt you and when?
Are you still living with parents? Are you in school, working, or doing nothing? Who is supporting you?
There are basically 3 reasons to be depressed, angry, and disaffected at 19.
Situation, life, past events - clinical depression when you can't function in some ways.
Hormones - mostly fluctuating testosterone in males, that might be more than usual. Men and women share the same hormones, but in far different amounts.
Developing severe mental illness, from psychotic depression to schizophrenia. Much less likely than the first two.
As for antidepressants, they often don't work, or take a long time to work, or you need a different type, or you need talk therapy too.
So tell us - what is going on where you live? Where are you in your brand new adulthood?

How long have you been on your medication. Have you discussed it with your doctor that it is not working? Are you honest with the doctors as to your condition?

Need to keep seeing your doctor, Perhaps you can actually do something, work places without pay, to get out of the house.

I feel the same way... except for I work my off and I'm barely making it and I can't go to school because my dad screwed me over on taxes. Lifes not fair. Not one of my friends my age have to worry about the roof over their head, transportation, food, nothing. I just want to go to school and get educated and try for something that I want to do in life, but looks like society decided that one for me. I'm not happy at all in life either. I ing hate being harassed on the streets and buses all the time. I feel like I'm always getting the short end of things. I have absolutely no relationships with any of my parents because they're all selfish crazy s.

Your problem may be due to anxiety. Depression can be a symptom of anxiety. I've been where you are and anti-anxiety medication (lorazepam) made all the difference for me.

It's very common for doctors to misdiagnose those suffering from anxiety. Since anxiety can cause depression, they will assume you are just suffering from depression. I suffered from anxiety for 20 years and was diagnosed and treated for depression for half of that time. Finally I realized I had anxiety and told my doctor.
As soon as I started taking anti-anxiety medication, I started feeling normal again. I actually wanted to go outside and do things like everyone else. I had brain surgery for a subdural hematoma over 20 years ago, and apparently it is the cause for my anxiety.
