bobbarobba,
Telling us that you have been on macro for 6 weeks and that you are suffering from depression, tells us very little.
Without identifying youself, tell us the rest of the story.
What do you eat now, specifically a breakfast, lunch and dinner menu for the past six weeks, what recipes are you using, or who taught you your macrobiotic cooking style?
What was your diet previously to macrobiotics, and for your whole life before that?
What kind of climate do you live in and what season is it, now?
What kinds of work or daily activity do you do, and how much sleep do you get?
You know, that to give anyone a diagnosis of their condition, one needs to know more than just two facts about them.
You can also learn more about macrobiotics and healing and improve your health and well being without anyone else's involvement, if you wish.

If you can't easily find a copy at your local library or a book store where you can read a copy if you are cash poor, then consider buying a used copy from either Amazon.com (I bought three used copies to have a traveling copy and for my friends and housemates) or
http://www.bookfinder.com/.
By the way, what macrobiotic books have you read or gotten, so far.
A book that is out of print that might also be helpful is

Have a great journey and learning experience!
Thank you, very much.
