I've had very severe depression before, and to be honest, when I got hospitalised, it was a relief! I felt like I was 'sick enough' to just let go of all the stressful things in my life and just go to bed. Gradually (I was there 7 months!) my head started to clear, and I felt more capeable of dealing with things.
It's alright to feel not able to deal with things when you're depressed - it's part of the illness.
