labrynth,
I wish you weren't so hard on yourself. There is so much more to the world than what you have experienced in 25 years. Remember that everyone's path is different, and try not to judge yourself because your way of getting where you want is different than someone else's.
One of the hard thing's with depression is dealing with the existential questions of "why am I here" and "what is my purpose?" Try to approach these questions as if it's an adventure rather than a judgment. Figuring out what your purpose is can be a life-long journey filled with joy and pain, love and hope. Somethings will be wonderful, others will be terrible. Just remember we wouldn't have the sweet without the sour.
Good luck,
seesaw
