I am newly diagnised (two months ago) and just feel so down. I know I should be happy that I'm not dying but I'm just confused about what to do next, what kind of job to get, just life. Anyone have any suggestions? How do I keep going.

I know the feeling of depression and the uncertainty that comes with this diagnosis.
I can tell you about a job though. Do what you do best and scale it down if it stresses you out. I for instance do well with data entry so I found a part-time job that is not in a stressful environment. It all depends on what you want to do and can do.
Also, about your depression, you may want to look into medication to help you deal with these feelings temporarily. I was on Cymbalta for a couple of months and it worked great.
Hugs and welcome.
