Sometimes we just have to hold our breath and jump into the cold water. IOW, don't let fear rule your life - be adventurous, take calculated risks, find what makes you passionate. Think about what you fear, for instance, I had a fear of public speaking so I joined Toastmasters to overcome it. I am still nervous about talking in public, but I have managed to control it with all that I learned at TM. The less things you have to fear, or you have control over, the more life becomes more enjoyable - for me, anyway.
I know that depression isn't about just getting over it. This is a disease that needs to be treated. It all takes time, and I think you are doing the right thing by giving yourself time to work it all out.
Hope your week goes well.
