Sorry to hear you are having some down-time Stewy. Have you been keeping up with your therapy/meds? You were doing great with that for a while and it really seemed to show through in your posts.
Regarding your statement above, that's purely your addiction talking. Take a moment and read your writings at the link below about how bad things were even when you were still drinking. You are having a difficult time right now -that's true, but if you were to drink again it would only make things even worse than they are. The "throwing gasoline on a fire to put it out" concept applies 100% in this situation.
