If you are just "not drinking", then it's not surprising that you feel the way you do. One of the hardest parts of true sobriety is learning new ways to face life on it's own terms and enjoy it without using alcohol.
I'm not in any treatment program. I tried to quit on my own because I was too embarrassed to go and get help, because I feel like this is a problem I could have prevented.

However, I am certainly open to the idea.
