About Me
Just found this site out of sheer, I don't know, desperation. Big problem with both Clinical Depression and its best friend...alcoholism. I'm just hoping to read, listen and possibly write. I'm pleasantly surprised about the outreach here. It seems very genuine.
Interests
My interests range a little. I love certain "arts"- books(usually classic, autobiographical, and some modern), music (Sting, Springsteen, Glen Phillips-anything well written). I TRY to write. I love the stock market, anything done well, my Phoenix Suns, and working out. Also, I'm a big animal lover, especially my felines.

Thanks! Always happy to make it through another weekend sober. It certainly isn't always easy! Hope you're doing well also!

Thanks for your message. I will "think" about the board, not sure its the place for me to be.
I’m With You
Hey portercat, saw your screen name. I'm Steve Porter and have 4 cats who let me live with them. All adopted me. Hope you are feeling good, better or something. My cats keep me going from day to day, if it weren't for them, I would have given up long ago, and just said the hell with it, take me to the psych ward and lock me up. But knowing the cats can't open the canned cat food forces me to keep going. Thank goodness for the felines.

Support Groups
Close Alcoholism
portercat hasn’t entered any details for this support group.Close Depression
Type: Clinical (Major) DepressionScary to see all the drugs here and it's not even half the list I've been on. Keeping it short, I've had this thing since 19 years old, so 20 years of struggle. There is truly nothing like it. Maybe I can add something.
