These are tough times for people like us. All I can suggest is that there is a feedback loop where minor rejections may trigger ruminations which themselves trigger ruminations till you're right down at the bottom of the black it. If you can recognize this cycle then just let it be for now. You may not have enough strength to start countering it, but just recognizing it is important.
Take it easy, the solution is there but it may not be grasped imeediately. If there's something that gives you comfort (even smoking) I would just do it and worry about it when you're better. I'm pretty sure depression kills more people than short-term smoking. You still have a lot of life in you, just take it easy and try to get on the right meds.
Have you ever been on Nardil?
