You haven't lost your lifetime at 22. I feel that at the age of 48 but I know I could do things if I got off my ***. You have loads more time to live your dreams.

Start with one small thing that you can actually do today. Even if it's something as simple as going for a walk or doing some research on depression. Our life gets better by putting small things into action so we don't get 'stuck'. Have a look and see if anyone in your area is advertising mindfulness- that can really help. Or yoga- try something new, it will help.
The thing to bear in mind is that you are definitely not the only person who feels that life has passed them by - whatever age they may be - and that the future holds nothing but more of the same. Your GP IS the first port of call. As Nailit says, anti-depressants do have side effects and people react to these in different ways. But for lots of people, they do work; they take the edge off this feeling of apathy and uselessness. In time, you may feek ready for one-to-one consultation, then, who knows, maybe even group therapy. Doing nothing and dwelling on your problem will only make it worse, believe me. It took me almost 2 years before i sought help and my advice now would always be to seek medical help a.s.a.p. Good luck.
