Get out of bed: There may be low-cost mental health clinic near you: see http://findahealthcenter.Hrsa.Gov/search_hcc.Aspx and no matter what, get out of bed every day and exercise in some way. Can be walking, yard work, running, whatever you can do. Get yourself on a schedule of looking for work, or volunteering, etc. Stay away from alcohol and other intoxicants. Connect with friends; take care of pets.

DEPRESSION: Apply for Medicaid so you can have free coverage for your Health Providers. Even if this seems like it's too hard to do, please push yourself to do it so you can get help.
