Hi:-)
I am glad I am here, everyone on SR is so nice, but sometimes it is nice to get away from the main part of the site, because there are a lot of things I have a lot of problems with and I feel I can't even politely and non-confrontationally suggest an alternate idea.
One of the biggest benefits so far since giving up alcohol is my depression has disappeared. I know alcohol is a depressant and I am curious whether it was the sole contributing factor to my depression or if it was just an accelerant...only time will tell!
