My new battle

First off, Thanks to all for the wonderful support on SR! I am amazed that I have been sober since 12/28/14, I never would have thought I could do it! I have brought this up before, Forgive me but it helps to chat anonymously.I have conquered that deadly demon named alcohol but still deal with anxiety & depression. I was told to stop working last Oct. by my Drs. My new battle is my financial state. My pay was cut in half while I try to get SS disability.Last week I was denied on my first application for SS. Stopping work just before winter in Wisconsin was bad timing, it's been torture to be stuck indoors with no extra money.I am hoping next weeks warm up to near 50 will lift my spirits. I'm trying to be hopeful about the future but it nags me inside to be 50 and be in such poor financial straights.Thanks for letting me rant,Mike
