Exquisitered,
Yeah, like others have said, despite AA having no opinion on outside issues, and a BB recommendation to seek outside help, AA members will give you all sorts of unsolicited opinion.
I found I did not need anti-depressants once I recovered throught the 12 steps. Felt that spiritual awakening in my life, and I decided to taper off the Effexor at 5months sober. It went fine for me. That, in no way, means that it will go fine for you.
The only thing I would be careful of, is that untreated alcoholism often manifests in depression. It's tough to tell them apart sometimes. So, when you say you are working a good program and working the steps, what step are you on? You can answer this for yourself. Those that don't know exactly what step they are on, usually aren't on one.
