I went through your details. I think you don't need any more education about depression. But I still suggest your know how about depression and cure is limited. Depression is usually treated with the help of medicines, psychotherapy, motivation therapy, CBT and life style changes. You are having medicines, alright. You need to consult a psychologist for information and treatment in the other forms of therapies. You will be able to manage your depression your own if you learn practice these therapies. Medicines are also part of the treatment regime. But you will become less dependent on medicines.
