I can empathize with you. I have been depressed most of my life, too. I get moments of despair, but I get through them albeit sometimes barely.
I have been on Prozac since it's birth nearly twenty years ago. I have tried again and again to go off of it, but the depressive symptoms reappear.
I don't know if it is psycho-somatic or real.
All I know is that I, like an alcoholic, have to admit to myself I am depressed, and a depressed person. I am who I yam. I accept me and move along.
A psychiatrist I went to long ago, back in Detroit in Henry Ford Hospital told me this:
Once you accept your illness, you will feel better about yourself.
I found this out:
Once I accepted my illness, I really did feel better.
I am not by any means saying you need to do this, just that is what I did, and I am learning to live my life with and without depression.
We can live a good life. WE can and we will.
Peace to you, and prayers...
