It could be a positive side effect of not drinking. Alcohol does cause a lot of depression, even when not drinking.

Is your depression seasonal? Do you tend to get depressed in the winter and happier in the summer?

I noticed my depression has lifted a huge amount since quitting AL. I still have my moments where I just don't care and want to sit around in my robe for 3 days straight without proper self-care, but it's easier to see it coming on and break the cycle before it drags me down.

Hi UK Blonde,

I think I've just been aware of the fact that my depression is just because a creation of my habits and not from any others at all .And my subconscious mind accepted that reality.
I don't feel so fatal these days as before.

Fly Away,
I think it's not at all but still have a cycle of mood swings. I think deeply but accept the reality. I still need to get out from the blaming others .Nobody can't make me depressed without my permission.

Reality is always reality !! I am re-programming my mind I think so !!!

I think you are becoming stronger. My aim is not to hide my problems at all , once I would be able to say that my problem publicly , my depression will be over for ever. Most of the depressed people have an intense level of thinking and creativity but that has been dominated by negativity. If it goes to the positivity I would be the happiest one.

Hello Dix!

Long time no speak but I agree with your post that we need to get out from blaming others. We need to find the inner peace to carry on especially when other people's actions affect us negatively. "Let it go" is more than a saying for me, it's often a way of dealing with everyday life.

Take care friend!
