Whoa! I read the first post in this journal and it rang alot of bells with me.
My situation was very similar, depression during LTR, end of LTR (she cheated), Bullying at work, Suicidal behavior, PTSD, Medication, Hypnosis, Subs. All in that order, 3 years ago I started studying Japanese, it was a seemingly random choice at the time but is something I've enjoyed and is now my major in Uni (late to start uni, now in the later half of my twenties), amazingly focusing on that helped me through everything. I know your situation is probably different, it sounds like you could already speak japanese before things took a turn, but I did have to text a friend (who reads this forum from time to time) just now to find out if hes trying to wind me up by posting something that seemed so familiar :L
I wish you all the best on this journey
how is your Japanese?
