I've always turned to music. I put on my headphones and either pop in a CD or turn on a concert or something. In college, it was a lot of Green Day. Nowadays, it's Gackt. His TRAINING DAYS 2006 DRUG PARTY concert always pulls me out of whatever funk I'm in. He just inspires me to do stuff.
first pin point what's gotten you depressed, and then find away to make it better. It sounds like your lonely? Maybe because of where you are you don't have anyone local you can talk to? Maybe joining a local book club, or going to your local craft store and signing up for knitting classes or something, that way you can possibly find someone local?
If that's _not_ the case, then it's still a good idea to find out what it is that's pulling you down, so you can find something to pull you back up :)
Nurture, nurture, nurture. Do things that make you smile - take time for yourself. Take a bubble bath. Read a good book. Go for a walk. But above all - be gentle and kind to yourself.

FORCE some stuff on yourself, and make it happen.
I think you're right - laying everything on Joel will be taxing. It's good that you see it, though...
I was oblivious to it, and messed up a really good relationship once because of this exactly...
Considering me your horrible warning.
Walk. Talk. Get out. The "feeling better" will come.
If you need to vent...it is what LJ is for...and if you need more? Lemme know!
That's why God invented email! I'm totally unbiased, bi-partisan, non-judgmental ear! In fact, I have two!
And two eyeballs, even!!
They read...usually...pretty well!

I looked for one thing, one little simple thing each day, that made me happy. A sunset. A nice breeze. Birds singing.
Something. Anything.
Then, after that? I went to the doctor and got pills. *LOL*
