I wonder if it's a good idea to date when you're depressed. It seems like dating is an emotionally risky situation that could deepen a depression if things go wrong (rejection by someone you like when you're already feeling vulnerable, etc.) Also having to put all the effort into looking good and sounding like you're not just dragging yourself around from day to day. Is it better to wait until you're feeling better or assume that taking action and possibly developing a relationship might make you happier so it's worth the risk? Any thoughts or experiences?
