depression and work the 12 steps ????
I suffer from depression and lately it’s been getting worse. I see a doctor and am prescribed an antidepressant. I work the 12 steps, go to meeting an am active in AA. I don’t feel like drinking at all. I know alcoholism can be depression. But this isn’t alcoholism this is mental illness I have been sober a while. I need medication. I’ve had a spiritual experience of the result of the 12 steps. Peopel on AA say. I look like a new man and I changed.My question is does anyone ever feel like its useless working the 12 steps because you feel bad from depression? Or do you continue with the 12 steps? I am continuing with meetings and prayer and meditation. Also I feel disconnected from God lately even though I pray. can anyone help help me?
