Sober from alcohol but not from weed

I am extremely depressed today because i have worked so hard on my alcohol sobriety. I of course, am not cured but i have been educated about alcohol abuse for 9 months now. My partner is now not happy with my problems with depression. Of course I have depression, I have been diagnosed with ptsd. I am so exhausted I don’t know how to solve a problem I have had since childhood. On antidepressants and seen plenty of therapists. Nothing helps!! I am going off this site. I think everyone on this site is great but I need someone to talk to and I am not able to figure out this site. I wish everyone well!! :heartbeat:

So sorry for your depression and that the therapists have not been able to help you. Have any of them tried EMDR therapy? I do wish you loads of love :heart:

Charlene, I hope you find your way back to this thread to read the posts. So sorry for your depression & PTSD. I found a behavioral therapist who practiced EMDR a few months after I got sober. She and I worked through my mental state and it saved my life, along with sobriety.
