> Hi Sar--
Sorry but this is neither kind nor gentle nor trendy either.
Depression and alcoholism invariably come together. I always
thought that depression was the worst thing in the world. It
wasn't. Alcoholism was. Clinicians diagnose alcoholism by blackouts.
I don't know you but your pdoc sounds less than stellar. Any
chance of better help? Treating the depression is obviously necessary
and getting the anxiety to a managable level would be equally desirable.
It will help you stay away from the booze, which by the way, unless
you're totally unique, will need treatment too.Better pdoc?
AA is good too.
Good luck.
S.
