Sorry to hear about your situation. As somebody who also suffers from depression I cannot tell you how much I think you have to change your work environment. That black dog will do you in if you are not careful and an awful working environment is one of the worst things when it comes to depression in my experience.

Also as noted by a couple of others is Go, Dart, etc. really the best technologies to be learning right now in your area (both technically and geographically). I don't know the NZ tech world at all but if it is anything like London (and most other places) then get a solid knowledge in the main business languages such as Java. Obviously don't just follow my advice blindly but research into companies in your areas and learn learn learn!

I sincerely hope your depression improves.
