I'll be honest, going outside does help. The problem is when you don't have a compelling enough reason to (in my personal experience. This might not be everybody's experience)

You can go buy beer or something.

Mental illness and alcohol is not something I want to mix

Yeah at least i know getting drunk makes me more depressed not less

[–] Flax_vert@feddit.uk 4 points 5 days ago (1 children)

If it made you less depressed, you can easily become an alcoholic

I'm an alcoholic, definitely makes me more depressed.

Then why do you drink? Sorry that this question is so blunt, lol

[–] dryfter@lemm.ee 1 points 4 days ago

I’m sober for 9 months.

When I did drink it was to escape, which is the real reason most alcoholics become alcoholics
