Hey jyl...
I've used booze to calm myself down (don't let my screen name fool you, I'm now a moderate drinker...well, moderate, but I do feel slightly uncomfortable if I don't have any in the house...a weird thing). But I don't rely on it to cheer myself up. It sounds like it sometimes lets you down, too. I know how exhausting this can be, jyl...been there, bay-beh.
It also sounds like your meds are performing sub-par...you shouldn't need to keep reaching for liquor..maybe it is time to try something new. I hate to think of the exhaustion you are going through. In the meantime, please know that my hand is in yours.

P.S. I know this sounds totally hokey, but one way I calm down is with a hot bath. It helps me to cry well and then it can soothe me. Not every time, but it can help....please keep posting to the boards, jyl.
