Hi CL. Thanks and welcome. For me there were 2 things. Physical health- so I saw a doc. Depression- both physical and emotional- so I see a therapist- and thru my doc take an antidepressant that takes the sharp edge off my depression.
Daily support is essential for me- so SR. Also AA and SMART. Journaling as well.
There is no quick fix. It takes work and support. Perhaps look around the newcomer's threads -such as class of feb 2017. Keep posting. PJ
