Who else out there has severe depression?

I'm diagnosed with severe depression (ICD has categories, don't know how it's handled with DSM, also dx'd with OCD and GAD) and honestly I'm on 2 different meds (about to start a 3rd one tomorrow) and I still can't do shit! No motivation to do anything! But today I plan on going out for the first time in a month and I'm so scared.

The worst time however was when I had psychotic symptoms - paranoia that all my (two) friends and family hate me and secretly conspire behind my back to hurt me - and I'm just glad this stopped. I still get these thoughts sometimes but I can distance myself from them now and recognize them as being irrational (yay no conspiracy).
