Again and again

Hey,
another new member. Diagnosed with depression about 22 years ago (32 now) and still struggling. Seems like a never ending circle. You feel better for some time but dropping to very low lows more often than not. Problem is, that while I can accomplish things in life while forcing myself to get up every day, it doesn't mean much to me. No one in my professional life knows anything about how I'm feeling, my private life is pretty much empty. Family sucked since early childhood, never had real friendships and relationships are also hard to keep up. Had 2 long term girlfriends leave me because of my depression.. destroys a lot of the bit of confidence I try to hold onto.
Tried different anti depressants, talking to therapists... all that. Now I thought I join here, not having any expectations really.
As you most certainly noticed, english isn't my first language. Please tell me if anything (from here on out) needs clarification or isn't understandable at all.
Thanks.
