I've struggled with depression and anxiety for most of my life. I've never been on any medicine cause I was too stubborn to try and convinced myself it would change who I was, but now I'm getting desperate. I've tried psychiatrist and psychologists but all they want to do is talk and I'm sick of talking. I'm sick of remembering. I just would like to see if I can go to a doctor, tell them what's going on, and they prescribe me some medication to help me.

Hello
You can definitely go to a psychiatrist (not a psychologist or a psychotherapist) and can get medical treatment for your anxiety and depression
Counselling/ psychotherapy would also help additionally if not as the only treatment
Next Steps
Do consult a psychiatrist, online or direct inperson consultation for medicines
