    I thought of myself as the sort of person that was getting enough Vitamin D since I make a point of being active outside every day. I must be getting enough sunlight, right?

    Well, I decided to try taking a Vitamin D supplement for about a month and it made a difference. Not a huge one mind you, but noticeable. Certainly, more than I would expect from a placebo effect. I was surprised by that and I take it regularly now.

    A lot of good suggestions and advice in here; however, I'd add that I think it's good to ask yourself what your social support system looks like. A partner, friends, a therapist, a psychiatrist, a mental health peer support group, a hobby group, etc. Having at least a few of those would be a good start to help keep you on track.

    It also might be helpful to reconsider your perspective on therapy. While it may not be as necessary as it once was in the past, it might be good to revisit. It can be good just to check in rather than seeking treatment for a specific diagnosis.
