Rico,

I went down that road a couple of years ago, not a fun time for sure. Some of my friends commented that I looked terrible and I did. Couldn't sleep right, had no enthusiasm for the future, etc. I followed a counselors advice and ended my marriage of 15 years cause I couldn't keep trying to please someone who would never be happy with what I was doing.

I know this isn't your situation but I just use it as an example.

This was the hardest thing I ever did. I thought I should stick it out cause that's what your supposed to do and was scared of being alone. Years later my life has never been better. I have a new wife and the child that I always dreamed of. My friends say I look great too!!!

What I'm trying to say is that there is alternatives to the what is causing you to feel that way. If it's your job get a new one, if it's where you live, move, if it's your family, don't see them as much.
Change what's bothering you and you will change your life. I'd suggest talking to someone profesional about it. Doctors will likely have a prescription solution, counselors will help you through talking about it. Maybe the solution lies in both area's. I can only comment from personal experiences.
For what it's worth I've been on this site along time and always thought your posts were worth reading and you contribute to CalgaryPuck in a positive way.
Get better, life's to short to spend it wallowing in that quagmire.
