I was looking forward to celebrating my birthday with friends, but no one remembered. So, I celebrated alone with a bottle of brandy instead....

That's rough man, I'm sorry to hear that.
I don't know if this applies to you or will help at all, but I've been living with depression for years and I stopped celebrating my birthday when I realized that putting pressure on myself to be happy on one specific day was just making me more miserable. Ultimately, your birthday is just a day like any other and you don't have to put any special significance on it if you don't want to.
If you want to celebrate with your friends you don't need to wait for your birthday as an excuse to do it. Do it just because you want to, or because you feel like you need something to get you out of your depression. Think of it like self-medication if you have to. Believe me, self-medicating your depression with friends is a lot better than trying to self-medicate it with a bottle of brandy.
And for whatever it's worth to you, Happy Birthday.
