Thanks for the replies everyone.

I spoke with my boyfriend about this last night, who's 9 years sober and also works in mental health. He echo'd what you said, Richard.

He also pointed out last Sunday....when depression hit over money. It hits fast and without warning. So while I'm generally happy most of the time, I do experience feeling sad quite often.

So I think I'll pick them up, do some research on them, and give them a try.

I'll let you all know how it goes!

And Richard, just cuz you're sick of hearing your own words, doesn't mean we are. I always look for your replies. You've been with me since day one of my recovery. So whether you like it or not, you're a part of it and I love your words!!!!
