Hello Mouserocks,
First, thank you for trusting us with this.
Many years ago, I read a book, "Feeling Good: The New Mood Therapy" by David Burns, that helped me think about some things differently. I've never been diagnosed with depression, and I don't know whether reading a book on cognitive therapy would help someone who is clinically depressed, but it certainly couldn't hurt.
Are you in a position to be able to seek professional advice?
Take care,
Lynn
