1. Nobody can give you medical direction

Except your doctor. Anti-depressants probably saved my life, sober. I felt like a piece of shit for needing them, but depression runs strongly through my family. Glad you fired that sponsor.

Take care of yourself, a lot of things in the news hit me at a personal level, the humiliation Trump gives to women on a regular basis took me back to a bad college relationship that I drank myself through, and that was 30 years ago.

Keep your head high and know that you aren't the only person who goes through stuff like you described. I tend to feel like I'm the only person who has the feelings I feel and have to remind myself that being human includes everyone. Someone once said in a meeting I was in that the best he could ever be was human, over 20 years ago, but I still think that may have been the best thing I've ever heard.
