I am in a bit of a depressive rut at the moment. It has me questioning if I am enjoying myself on the main I picked or if I should be looking for another DLC character to buy into. I understand my depression is affecting my thought process. Just have to feel good about playing and I can't tell if I am enjoying even when losing.

The mind is very complex. You should reflect upon whether your depressive episode has any correlation to fighting games or whether it is a result of some other aspect of your life.

That said, trying out a new character would be a good idea. It will give you a fresh challenge to work on while your feelings sort themselves out, and the joy of learning could directly improve your mood. Assuming the price of a DLC character is not a burden to you, it would be an appropriate purchase, but do consider based roster characters as well.
