Just a little input. I single, 40 and use to have my own business and huge parties. I've drank since I was 18 and finally stopped at age 39 in 2003. I started taking antidepressants around 1991-92.
After stopping drinking, antidepressants are so much better. I think taking these meds while drinking made my depression worse.
I used to read info like this in huge denial and think "whatever," but it does make a huge difference if you don't drink with these meds.
I'm sure it's exactly what you don't want to hear, but if you don't drink for at least 2 months, you should be able to tell a difference and then you can make a decision for yourself on the difference.
