i got "cured" from chronic depression (i shit you not), but i do not discuss these matters in the open as they only invite the misinterpretation of fools.
good move on not trying to manipulate your emotions with drink/shopping/etc. (and i may add: sex is delicious but it's no cure).
for now i would simply suggest you try plenty of sleep (with no lights, no tv on, no headphones), and 15 minutes of sunlight every day. a light outdoor workout is ideal for this (bike ride? jog?).
if that doesn't work, you're having shitty thoughts and living a false life-- there's no way to manipulate that & you need to look at the root causes. but i'm not going to go into that just right now. only consider that just like depression, "thoughts" are also chemical.
