 Don't be so hard on yourself.You have just hit a rough spot.Sometimes taking anti-depressants alter the chemicals in our brain giving us a false high which could give us the strength we need.But the problem that got us there in the first place does not go away.You need to face that black hole that you are avoiding.Why have you given up on everything and women? Remember not everyone is like the person who has hurt you.

I personally have been down this road, myself. I can say that anti-depressants work only with the proper life-style. DO NOT completely rely on them to help you "fix" yourself. You need to have the proper diet, exersize, and sleep for them to work the way they should. Most anti-depressents are used only temporarily and start after 4-6 weeks after initial use.
That being said, your actually in a good spot, believe it or not, you now are at the point where I felt that my life really began. It's all about you now. Don't consider that egotistical, because I don't think it is. You have to start building up your life, because its the only one you have, and you only get one chance at it. You might as well enjoy it. Women may be depressing at times, but they can be great aswell. Alot of people told me to get hobbys and interests and get to know a lot of people, but I found that I already had these, I just needed to focus my attention towards other things. You have to understand that people are human and will let you down, but don't hold that against them. Even if you have been in many rough relationships, you have to admit you learned alot, even if they are not what you wanted to learn. You have to please yourself, and DO NOT expect anything. I'm sure you've done stuff to people thinking it's the best for them? Now it's your turn and you need to do what's best for you.
