Hi magic potion..I have also been in the same situation as you- not able to get out of bed, taking 6 hours to plan on brushing my teeth, feeling detached from, and unable to love other people, feeling unable to work, and feeling that my life was a total failure. Now that I have gotten better, I realize that all of those behaviors and feelings were the result of profound depression: once that starts to lift, possibilities for a full life will begin to open up. There are sure to be things that will help you- there are many choices, but from the severity of your depression right now, my thoughts would turn to ECT or TMS, possibly an MAOI inhibitor, and psychotherapy- supportive for now, but more growth-oriented once you begin to feel better. I don't know for sure, but I would guess that a good percentage of the posters here have gone through just what you are going through now, and know first-hand how terrible it is.

We do want to continue to hear from you, and if we can, help you make decisions which will be helpful to you.
