Any insight in that?
Hi eggplant,

If you have the means, I think it's much easier to try to get undepressed as much as you can first, before looking for a job. Looking for a job often involves a lot of rejection and that can be very stressful and hard to deal with when you are depressed already.

It's really cool what you're doing. If you look in depression success stories, the people who got a benefit from meditation say they needed to do it solidly for a couple of weeks before they got a big breakthrough.
