A couple of things you can do to help yourself
1 find a friend who you totally trust and talk to them a problem shared is a problem halved. it really does work.
2 make a list of what you want from life and what is stopping you making your targets, when this is done just take one step at a time see each little step as one task, not all the steps as one task, hope you get what I mean.
and remember if you do hit rock bottom then the only way is up. most people hit rock bottom at some stages in thier lives, it is normal.
one last word a journey of a 1000 miles starts with a single step, YOU have to take that first step.
There is help for you, check out this web site, I did and I got off antidepressants completely after thirty years.
