I'm plagued by the fear that my unhappiness was my doing all along, that I am not capable of being anything but miserable. When you stand alone, there's only you to blame. I'm going to take these steps, and truly hope I have enough left of myself to have a life on my terms, with a hope for a future where I'm not trapped in someone else's nightmares. And maybe to enjoy my well earned peace of mind. It's time to get on with living, and stop merely existing. My success or failure in my hands alone. Please wish me luck.

Good luck NQR.
I think that not being able to move on and being plagued by regrets or guilt, being unable to enjoy being alive - these are all directly understandable symptoms of the underlying thing which I believe causes depression:
