Preferably a psychiatrist.
I've been mired in depression myself, but we live in the age of effective antidepressants, and I've got to say, even after only a couple of months life feels a lot better now.
You shouldn't try doing anything really desperate until after you've tried happy pills. As dubious as that may sound to you now, I can honestly say that they have really helped me get back on track with my life.
(Also, Eva feels completely different when depressed and not depressed)
im depressed at the moment. not 'oh gods, kill me now!!!!' kinda depressed, but regularly bursting into tears.
I've spent many years depressed... i don't know how to fix it, but i have various strategies that help a bit.
Getting help from a counselor/pyschologist or something heps a lot of people. I've seen plenty, and they've never been of any help to me though.
To temporarily feel better, i keep a piece of rose quartz on my desk and hold onto it for a while sometimes if im feeling bad. It always makes me feel a bit better...it puts my heart at ease a bit. Of course, many people would find the idea of doing that ridiculous.
Like animals? If you've got a pet, even if its just a fish or something, spending time with it [ok, watching it if its a fishy lol] usualy makes a person feel a little less miserable.
It's important to be honest with yourself about your feelings or else they'll cause subconcious issues and mess you up badly in the end. If you wanna cry, you should cry.
Go to the hobbies board. ヽ(´ー`)ﾉ
Dear God! None of you depressed people should watch Eva!!! What's wrong with you guys!? Suggesting Eva!? Of All Things! Watching Eva would just give them the idea of killing themselves and taking down as many people with them as possible before they are taken out themselves!!!

Over time, I've slowly become something of a hikkikomori. However, I'm still young and have plenty of opportunity to turn my life around. The only problem is that I can't seem to find any motivation in doing so other than feeling less shameful and depressed. I can take care of those issues in the short term by focusing my mind solely on my hobbies (anime, etc.) so I don't feel the pressing need to change my situation. I do know that the longer I wait, the worse the situation will become. Yet whenever I consider or attempt to do something to turn my life around in the long run (such as going back to college), I feel paralyzed because I can't make myself want to change things. The way that things are now, my living expenses are covered by my Dad, thus there isn't an urgent need to go out and find a job either.

stop masturbating and you'll find motivation real quick
also, get into the real world and compete, realize how much of a loser you actually are, and then dethrone the reigning king
What >>13 said.
And you don't have to upgrade everything either. As long as you have some basics covered (like enough RAM and hard drive space...) chances are that the computer you're using right now can do pretty much everything you want. Except games.
I've been using a 500MHz P-III as my main computer for the last four years, and it does everything I want, like downloading/watching anime and porn ... I mean movies. Web / email / schoolwork / programming obviously is no problem either.

Oh look, I'm copypasta now. I am sure this will impress everyone that knows me.
Until I read about her texting you, I suspected she may've been avoiding you. However, getting in touch at odd hours "just to talk" can indicate several things: she could want to talk and may genuinely be busy the rest of the time or she may even be, gasp, shy-- thus texting at hours you may not be up and immediately responsive. Either way, if it sticks to texting and talking long into the night, you face the distinct possibility of turning into her confidante and planting yourself firmly in "friend territory". Try to make a date ASAP. If she makes an excuse, be a bit persistent. Suggest she let you take her out for coffee or dessert after her plans. Something like that. Just be sure to facilitate some meeting. Once you try accommodating her clearly very "busy" schedule, if she's still unwilling to get together, give it up. She's either uninterested and, hell, even if she is interested, she doesn't value your time and efforts because she's evidently not making any effort of her own to try and change her plans.
Well, all I can say is, suck it up. Life is simply known as a giant test. Separate the weak from the even weaker. There are no strong ones out there. You need to find the confidence inside yourself and learn what it truly means to be human.
We're all bound to feel like that sometimes, but you need to remember something. If you can't make it through this point in your life, how are you going to enjoy the rest?
Do what I do, just lie down in your bed one day and just think. Think about anything, depressing things, happy things, anything really. You'll come up with your own answer eventually.
You may think killing yourself is okay, but trust me, we're all going to die one of these days, so for now, don't tip toe through life just to arrive safely at death, but stride down life confidently. So when death arrives, you'll be able to embrace it with open arms.
