Fortunately for me, my bouts of depression are all situational. Some are extended (as are the situations), but none are "just" my brain lying to me.
But in those situations, I've found the internet to be a mixed blessing. I don't want to burden my friends with my problems, but my closer friends that I'm not able to get to physically are willing to listen.
My recovery is tied to solving the situation. Sometimes the internet helps with that, too.
