    About 1.5 years ago I was working as a temp, struggling at work with simplest of tasks, very depressed, single, broke, drinking too much. Now I have lovely BF, stopped ADs and feeling fine, got a FANTASTIC job which will help me getting out of the broke state and not drinking.

    That really is fab Marru. How much is down to not drinking I wonder?

    A year ago I was unemployed, drinking 50 plus units a week, on anti depressants, no clothes fitted, unhappy and troubled, engaging in other risky behaviours.

    Now I'm well on my way to turning my life completely on it's head. Much of it due I believe to stopping drinking.
