Everyone's giving some veyr good advise, although I don't think that using firearms is practical.
Here's my bit, if you're considering psychotherapy, look at Cognitive Therapy (ask the person what they follow) - its been found to be the most effective, as good as psychoactive drugs used for depression. Other things you may want to try, pay attention to your thoughts. We all have habitual thought patterns. When you're depressed these usually are negative, self depreciating etc. These create and reinforce feelings of depression and worthlessness. Something that helps is to actively dispute these or do things that are incompatible with those thoughts. There's a lot more, but that can be a starter. larry On 7/21/05, S.
