So, if you (we) drink, it only makes matters worse. I drank last night because I was frustrated and depressed. I don't want to go to an AA meeting just yet. I'm not actually quite sure if I'm an alcoholic or not (which probably means that I have an issue with alcohol) I don't drink every day, but when I do, I'll finish the bottle. Have you tried going to a private therapist? Maybe that could get you started to figure out if your depression can be treated with medication. Just a thought. Also, if you live on the East coast (as I do), we've had a miserable winter and not much of a Spring. That can make anyone depressed. I wish you well and will say a prayer to the "Universe" for you. Keep trying. I'll do the same.
