I drank myself into such a depression that I took a lot of pills on top of it...wanting to end it all. Without the alcohol I probably wouldn't have done it.
So now I'm a lot more careful not to drink too much. Just learn from my mistake, never mix alcohol with drugs or ur meds.

The first time I got drunk....i felt sooooo depressed. I was crying all over the place. So i can relate to this.
I think small amounts of alcohol though, actually elevate mood? but as you progress in quantity it depresses your mood more. I forget where I read this.
Alcohol has been explained to me, as being a nervous system depressant, rather than a mood depressant. As in, it's a drug that affects your nervous system, slows down reaction time. But i guess it can mess with your mood as well?
