Hi, I've been absent for awhile...just realized I first joined in 2011...most of my drinking has been only one or two a day but everyday and sometimes more....recently had up to 2 months of abstinence and then use, abstinence. Tried the odd drink and it does lead to a slippery slope. Off the booze....and I mean had only one 8 oz of alcohol but then next day abdominal pain/vomitting x 2 days....so now abstinent 3 days. Yes, feeling no motivation/energy/depressed mood. So googled depression/abstinent after drinking and here I am again. These posts have really helped. I continue to eat a plant based diet, feel sugar cravings, and do meditate. I have added fasting which helps. Have played tennis as well. Thank you all for being here.
