All I can say is, well, I think I know what you are feeling and have felt like isolating, giving up and staying in bed. Job hunting, worries about finances is a huge stress for you. Good for you if you can force yourself out with a friend. I was told as well, to act anyways, do something, but there are days I just feel I can't. Many days I feel were wasted, but depression is something most people don't understand. Hope better days come soon for you Mat.
