You may need to review your medication with these types of symptoms. The alcohol and smoking is not at all helping and the prognosis for your depression will only worsen with the continued use of these two substances: Kindly work towards stopping the same, immediately. I do not believe in astrologers or astrology, so kindly excuse my saying that they do not help at all. I would rather suggest you work with a counselor to deal with a lot of your issues and find ways to develop skills to cope with life. Your depression is clearly anger related and the suicidal drive must be worked on with counseling. Your disinterest in life itself is of concern. So do treat this as urgent and seek both psychiatric and counseling help.
