Depressed

Hi my SR Family,

I'm day 24 and have been on medication for depression for about 18 days (depression diagnosed during previous abstinent time). The meds have been bringing me down, and some of the PAWS seems to have doubled up on it.

Today was just a bad day. Nothing went wrong, nothing dramatic happened, just a very depressed, lonely, sullen day. My ex came over but that just made things worst. I feel like just shutting people out until I get over this. I still have support from you lovely people, and from my family, but I just feel like being by myself and try to let this pass. Some days are good, well not happy, but not depressed and then there are days like this where I am just sad and find no joy in anything. Think I have a long road ahead of me.

I don't drink anymore and don't have a desire to be trapped in the cycle again of feeding my depression with alcohol - a vicious cycle. I just wanted to vent a bit...

Be Kind to Yourselves.
