Hey mate just wanted to throw my 2 cents in, for what it`s worth.
I`ve suffered from severe depression for the last 12 years, brought on by kidney failure, also suffer with panic attacks, I`m fortunate enough to have a wonderfuuly understanding wife and 3 very beautiful kids, but sadly I`m not able to be a "real" dad, ie Pizzahut dinners, walks in the park even shopping, all these things are a no go for me, I`m lucky if i get out of the house once a fortnight.....and that`s period, it`s not something that comes and goes.
The guy who mentioned exercise or gym is soooooo right, you are, if only for a while, lifted out of the depression and feel "normal" again, another thing you might wanna try is meditation, stop fekking laughing lol, it does work.
All you gotta do man is find the things that make you happy and build on them, if you can discover the "trigger" to your depression then ya half way there.

Good luck man and think positive.
