I can empathize.  Been there and done that.  can you in program.  I had to .  Was put on librium, slept the first day and was on that drug for 4 days.  Had anti depressants changed by psych doc.  saw her everyday.  It was like a miracle for me.  Don't give up. There is help out there.  Ibi and Rodd know what they speak of.  They know much more than me.  I can just say Life is good again and it can be for you as well.  TJ

you are not on your own, get to an AA meeting and you will get help. I have been to many AA meetings in different country's and the welcome is always warm and welcoming.
you need to see a doctor and get some help with the Withdrawels...
