I don't know if there's anything I should be trying to do, in order to prevent the depression from getting worse and worse, aside from medication. Also, how can one develop a sense of self-worth again, after being beat down by depression? I fault myself and second-guess myself constantly, but don't know where to even begin to work on fixing this.

It took ten years for me to get my bipolar meds balanced. I was NOT depressed for that entire time, but I was unstable. All I can tell you is to find a psychiatrist to see who will be willing to work with you and change medications until you have the right balance for you. For me, that was Geodon -- it saved me. I still have some depression, but the Geodon really saved me.
I suggest that you see a counselor as often as you can while you're battling this. We here on the forum know how you feel; you're not alone.
