Very touching video and a beautiful tribute to your parents. Anti-depressants definitely help many people so I don't see any reason not to try them under a doctor's care. I think the best anti-depressant is faith based on God's promises. When you realize you will see and be with your parents again one day, it makes the waiting easier. When you realize they still share in your joys, it makes the occasion happier. When you realize they are living in a wonderful existence together, it makes the loss bearable.

I had a young girl in my Sunday School class that lost her Mom to cancer at the age of three. She was adopted by a couple in our church, only to lose her adopted mother to cancer at the age of 6. Just last month, she lost her adopted father due to a fatal heart attack at her track meet. She graduates from high school this Memorial Day. I taught her for so many years and now she is teaching me. Her faith in God is so strong she has been able to deal with her great losses. I told her how very proud I was of her and she told me that when she feels alone she remembers what I had told her when she was very young that just because you can't see the wind doesn't mean it isn't there. She says she may not be able to see God or her parents right now, but she never doubts that they are always right with her. And I too know they are!
