I have been in that situation. My advice to you is to move back home without quitting your job. Trust me, when you feel this depressed, you NEED something to do with your time as a distraction. I used to have terrible anxiety about coming home to an empty apartment. I had 3 cats that kept me company who I loved very much (and would have been extremely depressed without), but they didn't really take the place of good old human stimulation. I spent most of the time on the phone with my mother...so finally when my roommate (who was barely ever there anyway) moved out on me WITHOUT notice, I was forced to move home. I quit my job shortly after moving home, but now I wish that I hadn't. I am doing much better now, seeing a pdoc and on meds. I'm even thinking of moving out again, but there are still somethings I need to get straightened out first, like getting a new job and finishing college. God bless you.
