That's one of the reason my Doctor is referring me to a therapist. Just think, a few years ago, I thought that was a bunch of Sh&t. I figured a weekend escape and a tall bottle of rum would solve most problems.

But, there comes a time, that a professional can offer insights that a person just doesn't think about.

"self medication" with alcohol is rarely ever the cure.. alcohol is a depressant in itself. that is why depressed people who drink, tend to dive headfirst into depression.

As far as therapist...well I am an undocumented one.. I have taken steps from my childhood to make sure that I know the human mind all too well.. not a bunch of bs, trust me.. I have trust issues.. so I don't trust anyone else telling me who and what I am.. I know all to well, I have done so much introspection and retrospection, that I can sit and tell the therapist what is going on in their own life... (my research/scientifict mind prevents such therapies for me). may be good for others, just not me.
