You've suffered from depression long enough perhaps to have a sense of its patterns or cycles, yes? Can you describe the patterns, or are your worst periods of depression the result of random events/triggers?
How many stressors are in your daily life? Can you eliminate or minimize stressors? The reason I ask is because it can be exceptionally difficult to manage depression when your environment(s) is constantly fueling it.
