    Good for you! You should check out supplements such as fish oil for depression a good one that I use is Carlson super DHA, they are a little pricy but its all pure fish oil none of that man made stuff, look into quaility for supplements, even though pricy its worth it!

    Another thing you might want to do is get a 5hr glucose tolerance blood test, this is one that those who may be diabetic get to know for sure but I am not suggesting this to see if you're diabetic but rather to see if you have low blood sugar. Alot of people with alcholol problems have low blood sugar conditions which lead to sugar and alcohol cravings, this condition is called hypoglycemia and can lead to diabetes, but can be reversed with proper nutrion and supplements =) if you have any questions feel free to send me a message be glad to try to help.
