It's not depression from TRP. It's placing your happiness in a women/ other relationships and not in yourself. Only you can make yourself happy. Life is all about failures and doing it all over again. Don't be stuck in the past.
I broke up with a girl, lost my two biggest customers to my competition (I made enough to live like a king off them like never before) and found myself questioning it all too as I sat there alone, essentially unemployed, and gaining weight.
I played with several plates to get back on my feet, it helps a lot but temporary. Eventually I told myself to invest in myself and move on. I've been working out again, losing weight, and feeling much better, etc. and it all starts to come back.
For you, I'd seek changing it up. Go to a new gym, join some social club, etc. You got to change things around you to change your thoughts. I lost a job once, hit me hard, I moved cities and left it all behind. Within two weeks I didn't care about the prior job and the girl I was dating there.

If you don't control your emotions, your emotions control you. You're having a shitty moment because you feel like shit. And everyone around you sniffs out this bad energy. Get over it, get motivated, and get happy, fast. I've seen a guy in a fucking wheelchair pick up chicks.

I hurt my shoulder at work and it put me out of the gym for a few months, I felt weak, I couldn't even do a concentration curl.
I'd learn to take advantage of whatever situation you are in and bend it to your advantage. If you are with lower quality people, do you need them around?
Learn to love being alone, take up reading, read some great philosophy books: Plato, Nietzsche, literature, Hemingway, Bukowski. Find happiness inside, this is only temporary. Women come and go and injuries will go away.
