Help, I need some advice...

So, I'm bad at typing these kinda things, but here I go anyway.
I know I'm down, no that's not right. I'm pretty much depressed. Not the kinda depression that makes you wanna end your life or go do something that'll harm people. More like the depression that slowly eats at your mind and will always make you think negatively of things until you realize people don't wanna be around you because you never lighten the mood. Ya, it's kinda like that depression...
Well, getting to the point, I've been thinking for awhile on a subject, not telling, that makes me question everything I do and what I want to do. (I.E. did I make the right decision doing this?, was that really worth it?, etc.) I keep asking myself those kind of things and I always pull negative. I even try to talk to my friends, peers, and family to get some advice, but no matter what happens it never helps. I try to be happy around everyone and try to keep the moral up so events, work, etc is fun for people around me, but I can never shake those thoughts that just hide right behind the mask I put on. Recently I just think to strongly that now it even affects me to the point where depression becomes annoyance of everything.
But, what I wanna know is if you've ever had the same problem and if you have overcome it, or even if you're goign through the same probelms and working to fine the answer to. If you have please help and teach me how to deal with it. Thanks.can

It's one of those things where you can't lift the depression just by going and having fun; you just kind of have to let it pass. Hopefully it doesn't last for too much longer!
and Saturday is ok.
As ridiculous as it sounds, whenever I can't hold it in anymore, I just sit down and cry. I let everything out; my stress from work, utter feelings of loneliness, and the urge to just drop everything and run away. If you're not usually one that does that, just try it out. Find the trigger that upsets you, and let it pour out. Once you're done, reach out. Talk to a good friend who isn't going to get you down, or perpetuate what you already feel. Hang out with positive people. Focus on the positive and good things in your life. Look at what's going right, not what's going wrong. And if you can't find anyone to reach out to, do something that you love. Do some art, get out and go for a drive with your music blasting, and soak up the atmosphere in this paradise. The absolute important thing is to not sit by yourself in a dark room, trying to figure out what's wrong with you. Keep yourself and your mind occupied with the positives. This is what I find helps me.
Sorry if I kind of ranted along here...hopefully I put it in a way that isn't too hard to understand.
