I remember when I helped move a friend who was battling depression. He called and said that he'd been packing all night. When we got there, he had a single box half-packed in the middle of the room, with everything else exactly where it always was. And he was sitting on the floor staring at the box, almost unable to respond. With five people, it took about nine straight hours to get his apartment disassembled, packed, and out the door.
If you're having a tough time with this, definitely take the extra time. You'll still get 2/3 of the relocation money, so it's not like you've lost it all, and transitions are tough enough even when someone's not in the middle of a depressive episode. It's not worth sending yourself over the edge.
Take the time, take the space, and breathe. We're all sending major mojoz your way, man.
