i struggle with depression also. when i lost my job on 2010, i dealt with it as best i could. but as my unemployment prolonged and my prospects seemed dimmer and dimmer, i feel into a major depression. i took some drugs and saw a therapist, but the weight of my life was overwhelming. i am working again. just moved again, and finally feeling like i'm on solid enough ground to focus on diet, exercise and other things that actually make me feel good. best wishes to you...it will get better.
