Hi CountrysideGirl - really pleased you're back and posting and still fighting this. Great news about your ultrasound. I've been wondering if I might be able to get tests done to see if I have done any permanent damage... Must be a weight off your mind to know that it's come back clear and you can have a fresh start.
I suffer from depression too and have read in so many different places that alcohol makes it much, much worse - but despite trying "everything" to combat depression, quitting alcohol is the one thing I have never given a proper go before - it was such a crutch, it seemed too hard. I'm hopeful that without alcohol messing with the chemicals in my brain, I might be giving myself a decent chance of being happier. x
