I have been betrayed so completely that I doubt it is possible for me ever to recover. Every day of my life is a struggle against an infinite epic sadness that threatens to consume me at any moment.

I wish like hell that I was joking.

If you're being completely serious and this has persisted for a while, you should seriously see a psychiatrist. This is one of the most common causes of depression (men are 40 times more likely to suffer depression if they are betrayed in a relationship) and even if it doesn't require medication, a therapy session is usually a lot of help. I had chronic depression a few years ago, and it's the reason I'm studying psychology now. Prior to being depressed, I had been dysthimic for a long time, but when I was "betrayed" that was sorta the straw that broke my back.
