Sorry to hear things have not been so good for you, but at least there were some good things, no matter how small they were. Sometimes little bits of good mixed with the bad makes all the difference. It sounds like the breakup you had was a good one, and it's great you were able to take some good lessons from it.
I hear you about depression and issues tainting experiences. I've dealt with depression and other things for a long time as well, and it's hard sometimes to look back and realize how much I isolated myself from others. I think I would have had some more friendships from high school and even college if I hadn't been so cold.
It's good things are looking up though! That's fantastic you have a job you're passionate about. In this economy people often need jobs they don't like to pay the bills, so it's great you like what you do. Living with parents again is also something MANY people are having to do, so there's no shame there, and it's good you get on well with them.
