Depression can be a very solitary battle. It sounds like you have come through it though?
Don't sell yourself short. You are still standing. You are still here. You are posting comments on a website. :-) You are making your voice heard.
If you can't bring yourself to hope just yet, see if you can hope to have it someday. That's not semantics, not word play. I was so low at one point that I had to do that. Just, leave the door open to hope, and encourage it to come.
It did eventually, and then I was able to absolutely hope and expect better things. Some of them have come, I am still expecting the rest ... :-)
