Many of us here have felt this way before and the only reason we are still here is because we toughed it out (not to make light of your situation), where I live there are several psychiatric hospitals that have outpatient care programs. They have peer counselors and programs that help, but the most important (in my opinion) is that you are with people who care and others that are in similar situations. The worst thing you can do in depression is isolate yourself...thats when your thought procesess start to trick you. I do live in a university town so I'm not sure if you have many psych hospitals where you live but I think it would definitely help.
Hope this helps...Brandon
