See doctor: See your primary care doctor and ask for a referral to a mental health professional. Be honest about any meds you take, any drug/tobacco use (you say you don't drink alcohol). You need a psychiatric eval. If you have thoughts of self-harm, go to an emergency room. Stay with a family member or trusted friend meantime. Don't isolate. Depression is treatable. Be safe. I hope this helps.
