It seems like you have diagnosed your problem! IF your diagnosis is correct, and you are in a depression, then you have to get through it. But, what if your diagnosis isn’t right? What if your white count is high and you have something going on in your body that is allowing you to be tired, sleepless, exhausted..what if. Perhaps you should get checked out. Good Luck You might not be depressed. It could be a thyroid condition or something like that. It seems as though you’re more fatigued than anything else. There is more to depression than being tired all the time. There’s the racing thoughts at night, crying for no reason and maybe even at the worst times. Maybe even thoughts of suicide and things like that. Having lived through it, I can safely say that I hope you aren’t depressed because I wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy.

sounds like you just need someone to run with you. Sometimes you just need a friend with you when you are feeling low. Maybe you might also need some vitamins. If you don’t want to go to the doctor or take medicine to help yourself, it hard to suggest what you should do. If you run at the end of the day, try to run early in the morning. Exercising to late in the day can keep you awake at night. I would be tired too if I ran 5 miles a day.
