What do you do if you don't have family or friends to talk to or help you

My long term depression and anxiety has got me into the situation that I don't have any friends and no family close enough to help me in any practical way. Any ideas about who can give me support?

Thank you for your response. I would like to know more about your experience. I hate waking up every day and I take an antidepressant exactly as my psychiatrist has prescribed and I have been seeing my psychiatrist on a regular basis for at least the past 3 years. I would appreciate any advice and you have a lot of experience over 32 years.

FYI I have been diagnosed with major depressive disorder and I have a history of panic attacks.
