CHRISSY, I have had depression and anxiety since I was 12 years old as do many family members. After I finally got sober for medications to work I found a good anti depressant that works on both symptoms but not an instant fix. I see a therapist for CBT therapy and group therapy and yoga, meditation etc. I am also on Naltrexone and for me it is a god send: no side effects and it stops opioid use and some alcohol cravings but I’m still having to deal with occasional cravings (last night) but they aren’t as bad, although I don’t see this medication as a “cure”, more an extra tool to help me. Also AA meetings everyday and SR daily and check in daily with my recovery friends.
All of this is about saving my life.

Anything that works for you to stay sober is what
you should do.
