No More Booze. Getting on the wagon
So I had a consult at an ED clinic yesterday. Mainly so that I can have my meds monitored by someone who's working with my therapist, rather than my GP, who's not well versed in mental health issues.
I was told that I had to stop drinking. No more alcohol.  I'm not supposed to be using a depresent while I'm taking an SSRIthey'd like me to give up caffeine too. but that's not going to happen.  Kind of bummed out about this. I don't really drink beer much anymore but I do enjoy wine. |

well alcohol is a depressant. if you're seriously committed to tackling depression then alcohol won't help unless you're one of those who can drink a few 12 oz beers a night and stop there

alcohol is a CNS depressant, not a substance that directly makes you depressed in the same way an SSRI can make you not depressed.
it's still a good idea to quit of course, plus both put a lot of load on your liver. it just one of those things were people don't know the difference between a "CNS depressant" and a drug that will make you mentally "depressed" (which doesn't exist i hope :P) |

yeah. prolly good that I have a reason to stop. also, fewer calories. I think i can stay away from it. My wife won't drink if I don't and our family members that we're around most often have agreed to put away the beer and wine for a while so I don't have to worry about ppl drinking around me. |

I'm certain you've used it before. And I'm not whining. It is kind of funny.
it's an outpatient clinic that specializes in eating disorders. If I were to end up at an inpatient program it would probably be at the same clinic. |

I should tell them they can't eat around me either.
Srsly, tho.... I've gone weeks and months without drinking. It's not hard to do. I don't think I'm an alcoholic or anything. |

Not me. I stopped drinking when I became a hopeless stoner.
