Depression and the alcoholic

I note on these forums a lot of coverage of alcoholics becoming depressed when they have withdrawal.
However, little is said about depression and the al anon.
I went to a doctor as I am feeling tired, but cannot sleep well, etc. Most mornings I wake up as if I have never slept.
The doctor checked me out, physiologically all was fine and she said I might be depressed! Well I suppose why not considering all the BS I have put up with over the years.
I look at my RAH and think not very nice things............meanwhile he says my symptoms are not depression! I reply, 'yeah, afterall you'd know better than the doctor!'

Thanks for letting me vent a little here.
