Turns out my medication was just a placebo effect

Hey firstly, woah. I hope that you're able to recognize how much you're trying. You should be proud of yourself because the habits you have tried and created are more than most people. Your psych. is both correct and incorrect. Her statement was general, for some people medication really helps and others not at all. It's taken me probably 3-4 years to find the right medication but I'm also in therapy. I think that sometimes life isn't so much about what we're supposed to do, but sometimes simply doing. Doing the most you can for yourself in the moment. Or also doing things that bring joy (in healthy and positive ways of course). You play violin right? Does that still bring you happiness?
Honestly for the time being, distract yourself is my best advice. (Don't numb out or ignore but distract) I know that everything I said probably could've been said better but I hope it helps in a small way and if it doesn't that's okay too. Just know that someone is out there here for you.
as @mk1881 said u should honestly be so so proud of urself for trying. i know ur prob like 'eh well it hasn't helped i still feel suicidal and hopeless and awful' but trust me you're doing so so well. obvi this isn't gonna just disappear anytime soon but i absolutely promise you that the rest of ur life won't be like this. obviously idk u much but u seem like such a smart cool amazing person so just keep being your wonderful self and one day you'll find all the right support and all the right people and slowly everything will start making sense and you'll be okay in the end. until then we're all here for you!! sending more virtual huggies
