I don't know what to do anymore. Depression controls every aspect of my life?

Depression has basically consumed me. I try to go to therapists and take medications but nothing helps or works. On top of that I have no support for the way that I am feeling. I am 20 and had to move back in with my parents because it was getting so bad. Just tonight I was getting something out of the fridge and my parents were like " what are you doing???" then I dropped something else and I could hear them say I had massive issues then my dad did a whistle. I went to y room and cried. I am really upset. I have no support in this and all they have to say is that I need to get a job. Depression has robbed me of everything and my parents don't even truly care or care to know what I am feeling. I literally have no support. I have been thinking about trying to find a place to get help? But where can people with severe depression go??????? What kind of treatment centers ? I just really need some help and I don't know if getting a job, and sticking on a schedule will help me in the slightest...because it never has.

Update:

It has gotten to the point where i am not living I am barely existing. In all reality I AM an intelligent person and I could do great things. But this depression has taken away all drive, motivation and enthusiasm for anything. I have thought very seriously about ending my own life because it is becoming too painful. I think it is even more painful to watch other people that love life and live it to the fullest. My parents are disappointed and that is hard to cope with. I feel guilty..
