Today I went to My second ever meeting. Once Again, I didnt share, but they made me say my name. That was fine. I was very Anxious, more than last Friday’s meeting. I had to take an anti-anxiety pill. Any who made it through the meeting. Got home, watch the game, we won, yay! Out of no where crippling anxiety stomach pain, back pain, it all sucks. I tried baking, but it didnt help. I hate needing it. Im happy with out it. I have to go through it I guess.

I’m more of a “disappointed looker” than a yeller 
Whatever it takes, your life is worth everything.

I believe I am more the yeller type.
I am also not a role model.

You are doing great. It sounds like you have realized what it took me years to learn: We can’t just wish to be sober. We have to work for it.

There was a point in my life where I had such severe depression and anxiety that the medication helped me cope. Without it, I didn’t even want to get out of bed. I believe that for some people medication can be life saving/ changing. When I went off of them I just tapered and did not have any adverse reactions.

Please provide credentials if you are going to be giving medical advice.
Actually back then I wasn’t on any “drugs”. I didn’t even drink. And I didn’t “rely” on them because I was also seeing a therapist to learn alternative strategies to cope with it. Have you ever suffered from depression or anxiety? Just curious
