Do you think you are an alcoholic? If you are an alcoholic, perhaps a combination of treatments would be your best bet: a) treatment for your depression, and b) treatment for your alcoholism. A lot of people (myself included) start medicating depression with alcohol, and, if certain genetic factors are in place, succumb to it. If you could get help in getting sober, maybe the antidepressants would work better for you.
