Hi Here2u
It seems to me that you're doing pretty much what you need to help yourself.
Having said that, is it worth looking at your life ie do you have any activities that give you the opportunity for distraction.. Are there any hobbies you could take up or friends you could see.
Whilst I haven't used this, Mindfulness is seen as a very good therapy.
For some people exercise helps.
I'm just throwing these suggestions out. I don't know if they're of any help. Over the last 12 years I've been struggling with depression on and off. I've found that I've had to combine lots of things to move forward.
Take care, Helen
