i've been on antidepresants for years, and they help, but not when I'm drinking, cause alcohol IS a depressant and negates the helpful effects of the anti-d's. Using alcohol also brings on rebound anxiety. When the depressant effects of alcohol are gone, you get more anxious/nervous/jumpy than ever before.
My meds help me a lot, but not if I'm drinking. I'm sober now cause I'd rather feel better than worse.
