I agree with Berries. You should look online for support groups that meet in your area. Online help really isn't enough in the dark times (not for me, anyway). We can offer our support, understanding, helpful resources, and any wisdom we may have here, at Psych Central.

Personally, I'd recommend getting in to see a therapist soon. People often use drugs & alcohol to avoid dealing with their painful emotions. Coping methods. There are other coping methods ~ exercise (my fave), cooking, cleaning, dancing, singing, writing, fishing, physical sports, games, the list goes on.

Best wishes to you ~ I hope that you find some helpful healthy techniques to help you through the dark times very soon! Do get help in working through your emotions too. K?
