I have been diagnosed with Depression and Anxiety for a while now and I'm taking 100mg Sertraline daily. Had been off work for over a year and am now working part-time. I know that I have come along way since last year.
The truth be told...I'm killing myself...:blush:. Each evening I go through the same routine : Prepare dinner - have a glass of wine, sometimes I have nearly a bottle drunk before I even eat my dinner. Feed dog, walk dog and do dishes. Then, as I sit down to watch the tv or a dvd I start on spirits and every night I have at least a half bottle before going to bed. My liver has to be completely shattered. I dread going near the doctor because I know the LFTs are up the left and I've gained a lot of weight. This has been going on for quite a while (a year or more) and it's really starting to upset me.
I really do want to try and stop the booze. Has anyone any suggestions or tried a home detox? If so, what did you do and did it work.
I really thought that it was just a habit and that I could stop at any time...:weep: I put on a brave face at work and to the world I'm just the 'happy go lucky' person with not a care in the world. It's really getting me down and I'm so angry with myself in the morning. I do believe I need help.
Can someone please help? Any suggestions would be welcome.
