Thank you all very much! As you may know, depression and anxiety can make one desperate for any kind of relief. I think I will give some of the better meetings in my area a try - maybe they'll help. At least they'll help remind me that drinking is not going to help.
Very good idea. I suggest getting a sponsor as well. When I'm in a real depression I can't think my way out of it. But taking the action of going to a meeting gets me out of my own head. I always feel much better afterward. AA has saved my life.
