I completely sympathise. I struggle myself with Depression and several Anxiety disorders. I really despise that slump you described where you just all of a sudden, for no apparent reason, fall into a great big heap and cry and cry and cry.
I live at home too and I honestly think that makes me feel like I have a lack of independence, and makes me feel guilty and just... horrible. Depressed.
You said in your meme post that your LJ has helped you in the past, so I hope that it still does. The best thing, I find, is just to find one thing that makes you happy and cling to it with all your might. Like Debbie said in QAF (and boy has it helped me in the past) "all you can do at a time like this is just hang on until the scenery changes".
I know this may sound corny or trite, but if you ever want someone to talk to, please feel free to contact me. And I mean that. My email is toxikae@hotmail.com.
