Thanks to everyone. I appreciate your candid, honest responses. I must admit, the AA suggestions hit me like a ton of bricks. In my mind, I'm thinking, "I'm not a big drinker and I've just been doing this for a couple of days." But you are all right. This is a problem and I know it. I have NEVER in the past taken a drink of alcohol b/c I felt like I "needed" it for emotional reasons. I KNOW that is problem drinking. The fact that I gave in to it means I'm pretty deep into the funk.

My T has suggested AD's, but I am hesitant. So that I don't have to go into things I don't really want to talk about it, I'll just say that some of the potential side effects (ok, one in particular) are things that I have had to work hard to overcome and neither my husband nor myself want to have those problems again. I think THAT would make me more depressed than I already am.
