dandelion,
i am sorry again that this is so hard. I forgot to repsond to the depression part. it takes awhile to get the motivation back, and sometimes, you fear/feel like its on you again. it is very hard to be in academia when you are depressed. and i echo orangina, are you seeing someone? and i agree with her advice. even if you're not as depressed as before, it doesn't mean it still isn't effecting you.

also, you may want to meet with a disability coordinator or academic counselor at your inst. to work out a managable plan of what you can and can't do, and try sticking to accomplishing small things at first instead of the big picture, which is always much scarier.

good luck and take care!
