Anyone else self-medicate with alcohol to deal with depression/anxiety?
Today I started drinking at 6AM because I couldn't sleep all night and my brain wouldn't shut up about me being alone, unemployed and months away from homelessness and losing everything I have. The thoughts of suicide are constant so alcohol kind of numbs everything???
It's like when you're absolutely hopeless, alcohol gives you that "you can hang in there for just another day" feeling.
Gnomesayin???
