Wow, there's so much one could say on this subject. I'd post a lengthier response, but I don't have time right now, so I'll just say this:
Startup depression (hell, depression in general) is a serious problem. And while I'm no doctor or psychiatrist or anything, to the extent that just a "friendly ear to bend" can be useful, I offer myself up as such, to anybody dealing with depression. I've struggled with it myself to some extent, so I know what it's like. By all means, feel free to email me, call me, whatever, if you're ever feeling down and need somebody to talk to. If you happen to be in or near the RTP, NC area, we can meet in person over a coffee/beer/dinner whatever.
Also, if you're looking for other startup minded folks in this area to socialize with, definitely ping the RTP Hackers and Founders mailing list.
