My long term depression is why I started AA recovery.

It lifted by 3 months sober and has never returned in 17+ years...

This is from my share in the SR Stories Forum..

I detested the woman I had become. I was depressed and did
not know why. I was trapped on the misery-go-round. I drank for fun and
it was no longer fun. I drank to feel less guilt and surrounded my self
with the dark despair of addiction. My soul had withered and died ...drowned with liquor.
After 3 suicide tries, 3 mental hospitals stays, years of therapy..... I still drank

Thanks for the topic Levi..
