Have you considered volunteering anyplace? You don't have to let your life continue in the same way; you can make changes. Courage!

A lot of those activities are hard to do when depressed. With low energy and a loss in interest in many things, Ive become pretty boring person. The only fun Ive had is when i drink with friends. And normally I have way too much and dont remember much the next day and I feel more dy but I still felt like depressed afterwards.
Right now Im trying to avoid social drinking or drinking of any kind, now at my age, there are fewer options. I went 4 months without a drop last year and it was good for me physically, but thank goodness my job kept me busy on some nights and weekends.
