Been on Prozac for over a month now, feel slightly better mood wise, i am begining to forget about my ex, but lot of negative feelings still remain, feelings of my mistakes and failures. it haunts me everyday, especially as soon as i wake up, still have disturbed sleep. frightened about the future. I have upped the medications to 40mg.
I just feel that I am a weak person unable to cope with stresses of life and find an excuse in depression and procrastinate things. Any thoughts will be appreciated.

Depression is not an 'excuse' of any sort! My favorite depression quote: "Depression is not because you are weak. Depression is because you have been strong for too long."

You say that you are starting to feel better, beginning to forget about your ex... That's a good sign. Healing takes time, and the other negative feelings will ease away with time and nurturing..
Best of luck to you
Thanks for this!

My confidence is all time low, morning sorted few things as i have moved towns and just begining to settle down. But feel so weak at heart, feel like i dont want to work or do anything at all, its like what is the point of life, I am 35, divorced, do I have a life? ahead of me.

To me the procrastination, dwelling on past and lack of motivation/ hope are all part of the depression. I say that because when I am relatively normal and not dealing with depression, all of those issues are much lesser. They may be there but I am not rendered feeble by them . A divorce is huge in any one's life and depression will make that stressor even harder to negotiate. I will take time to completely recover.
