How can I stop overthinking because of my depression?

I was just thinking about my sweet black abyss…Long story short - i was diagnose with depression almost 2 years ago; i took the treatment for a while…didn’t do miracles at all and i stopped taking meds. I was in a lonely relation with a guy for 3 years (i.m 31 yo) whenever i was all alone i was in a bad mental stage, very bad… Almost 7 months ago i met this guy at work who is my significant other now, a very thoughtful and caring man, who i love and loves me back and we got engaged after 2 months of relation; i had a job for 6 months, i was in a good mental stage good because i didnt have time to overthink anything, just doing my job and when i came home after work i was to tired for overthinking… most of the time i forgot about my depression and i almost feel happines and fulfilment… I quit my job 1 month ago and the depression seems so kick in again… I have a hard time getting out of bed and do stuff around the house, won.t tell you how hard it is to get out of the house and have a life… I.m still almost happy BUT there.s this someting, this feeling of emptiness in my head like i feel numb and somethimes i feel like my happines is fake like a mask. I haven.t told him because he is affraid of my depression coming back…but my depression never went away, was always here in my head…My advice for you even i really really now it.s very hard, try to do something everyday… Get a job if you dont have one, get a new job if you already have one, try to do things that you once love to do, try to find someone who would really listen to you, a friend, lover, shrink, mom, dad someone.. just try! And never give up! It’s hard! I know it really is hard! I, somehow, got to the point where i just can ignore the overthinking… I think i tortured myself too much and i had enough!I waited years for someone to give me a magical advice for all of this to go away and i only realize the magic was in me. I.m the only one who can get me out of this sweet black abyss, no one else…Just try… try to listen more at others needs, try to help, try to focus on something good, maybe you.ll help yourself in the end.

What is the difference between the words "feint" and "feign"?

After this I know you will understand and trust me, this is perfect for you.

Check this out.

feint is when you do an action to fool someone or divert their attention or to make a person vulnerable. You can say:

"mike made a feint movement to the left and then to swung his body to the right to fool the boxer so he couldn't see the left hook coming afterwards."

then feign is an action to deceive someone or to imitate something that you are not or to create a scene that is deceptive but you are not necessarily doing anything to someone or anything. It's the representation of something genuine but you are not sincere.

For example:

A person can be at a job and have a co-worker where he "pretended" to be his friend and can say :

"Mike showed a feigned sympathy for John when he got fired on the job in front of everybody"

Basically Feign means to BE fake and represent something you don't really mean. and Feint means to start off like you are doing something but don't follow through.
