With both depression and drinking i got to a point of "just having had enough" and that is when the change happened .
I'd read books about how to do it all but it never worked until the pain of carrying on was worse than the pain of change , it was lucky for me that it happened on the living side of death as both can be fatal .
For me the only way i can describe it is the dropping of it all … a watershed breached .. the blowing of a psychological fuse ..
Where it leaves you i'm not sure but it's better than a drinking life
