If you can, get out of the house at least once a day. Make a point of saying hello to a few people. If you can't then samaritans or similar are at least someone to talk to. Meetup is good for finding groups. Online isn't the same as real life. Don't just stick to depression groups or forums. Depressed people talking about themselves and their problems and encouraging you to talk about your depression and your problems, while in a way comforting, is, well, depressing and can be enabling. Better to do things, talk to people, join groups that make you feel better, more positive , make you laugh or interest you. Good luck.
