I am well versed in Depression. I have suffered Bipolar since I was 18 (I don't understand why it started at that age) and I would go through 2~3 massive periods of depression a year. When it has come to therapy I feel like it hasn't worked for me. I've had 3 therapists, 2 doctors and a psychiatrist and only 1 therapist and the psychiatrist has worked for me. The therapist would talk to me of things I liked and the psychiatrist is a wonderful man who basically just lets me ask questions and engages me in interesting subjects. Medication has been the part that has helped me the most. When I was just on an antidepressant I did not slip back into depression, with Lithium on top for the mania I went back into depression for 3 weeks. For the most part the drugs have had no side effects, although a few times I have felt like a zombie on some medication. You ask how you should deal with the feelings, but I don't think there is a nice easy answer to that one. It just all around sucks and what you say about nothing just screams to me of how I felt at my lowest. Now that you're talking to us, I really feel you should talk to others. Doctor, therapist, priest, support group, etc. They can help far more than we can.
