I think you could definitely benefit from face to face support. Have you checked out AA? At least it would get you out of bed and you would meet others who have been there (or worst) and have pulled out and achieve long term sobriety.
As far as depression goes, you are going through a rough time and are detoxing so it is to be expected. If after a few months sober you still feel that way, you might want to see a doctor and get evaluated for depression.
