I can relate to your frustration with trying to support yourself financially and fit into the cookie-cutter work environment while living with depression. I struggle with this daily...
You mentioned that you had health benefits with previous positions. If you were to get another job, would you have short-term disability available to you? Have you considered working for a temp agency or consulting firm (not sure what your occupation is)? Both of those solutions give you the opportunity to be in a different environment every few months. Just when you've had it with one assignment, it ends and you get to be at a new company.
