Fear and Depression

Tomorrow I have to meet some people about a new business venture. It's something that can end up being a big new thing.  And I've been thinking too much about it and I'm getting kind of nervous.

Part of it may be that in my mind I know that I don't do well talking to other people in a business sense. I know how to prepare and I have time to work on it today, but I'm not sure I'll ever be ready.
But I know that this all goes into this Low self-esteem/Depression/Folksy stuff that I have.  Is this all just something that's bigger than I can handle?
Some days when I'm on I can do amazing things.  Sometimes I think that this is the real me underneath all of the crap.  But if anyone who has depression will tell you it's not like a light switch that you can turn on and off.
But what if there was?
How I deal with my depression is a bunch of techniques that I consider my tool box.  I have many more tools that I use that didn't always work when I was younger.  I guess over time you just learn to survive.  But what if you could come up with a trigger that will shut down all of the fear, even if only temporary?
I think this could be something.
