I'd have to consider you sociopathic or dissociative or addicted to drugs if your situation wasn't at least a little off-putting. Simply noticing that your living conditions are not what you want is half the battle. For me, true depression would be doing exactly what you're doing for the next 5 years and not recognizing that it was your situation causing your mood. I know I'd be hard pressed to work those hours alone without feeling down.
My vote is to find a day this week to go do some exercise; doesn't even have to be strenuous, just get your heart rate above 100 for a few minutes.. fast walk/jog around some park or to the nearest mall or something. The endorphins and adrenaline alone are better than Prosac, and you might see some human faces on the way. I'm not one to give advice on meeting new people, though, since I'm particularly terrible at it.
