What depresses me? Oh God...
All the injustices in this world
All the stupidity and short-sightedness
All of the cruelty, hatred and pain
All the things I wish I'd done
All the things I wish I hadn't done
All the times when I've upset people I really care for, and the look in their eyes..
My own lack of motivation to do anything constructive to change these things
The parting words of girlfriends I loved, and the fact that they're with others now
The fact that modern life is a superficial sham
The death of heroism: the lack of anything profound or epic
The lack of choices
The feeling that there should be something more
The feeling that whatever I do, it still won't make me happy.
The fact that I am a failure and will achieve little before I die

Normally I comfort eat or get very, very drunk. If this doesn't work I phone up my friends and bore them with my tales of woe. If that doesn't work I cut my arms, and if that doesn't work I take time off work, take myself to the Doctors for some pills that make me feel like death, take up smoking again, and sit on my window ledge and contemplate jumping for... oooh, about 9 months. That's what happened last time, anyway. And unfortunately, I think I've just got to that stage again.
