Thank you allport for putting this thread out there. I have about the same time without alcohol as you do and though I am not experiencing depression (has not been a historic problem) my body is very different and my total experience in life is more "bland". I think the advice about having your particular medication evaluated for your new sober self is great advice.
I have had similar experiences in AA and though I can see the group benefit might be good, the feeling you mentioned about not feeling good after meetings is what I have felt too. There is a good thread in the Secular forum right now called something like "just the facts" which has lots of good stuff about non-AA approaches which you might find interesting.
Good luck with the depression stuff. I have gotten a lot out of your posts these past 30-40 days on SR, so even though you are at home "alone" you are also with us on this forum and I am glad you are here. Thanks for sharing about this particular tough time.
