Hi Matt and welcome back. I’m so sorry you’re struggling so badly but well done for being proactive and getting to see your psychiatrist. Did your doctor talk about other support in helping you to socialise a bit more? Have you thought about talking therapies like CBT?
I’m going to nag a little bit here - alcohol is a depressant and will make you feel worse, along with reducing the positive effects of your ADs. And, as you found last night, often ends up with physical injuries .......
