I’m jealous of people who can think of a character and hear their voice, because I imagine it must make writing fanfic easier and reading it more fun, but I don’t think that’s what you mean. I’m sorry you’re having a bad time, and hope things get better for you. As long as you know the characters’ voices are really coming from your imagination and not from outside you, I think you’ll be okay if you can get a handle on the depression. It doesn’t go away, but it can recede into the background some. And I know it’s hard but maybe try putting your booze money in a “sober fun stuff” account or jar, and go to a movie/shopping/the zoo/wherever, before you develop physical dependence or it gets worse. Best of luck and (hugs).

OP, you sound like me several years ago, and I wanted to pop in and say that I'm so sorry that these awful things are happening to you. I also live with severe depression and anxiety. You are so very much not alone. *hugs*

Does your grad school have student health services? They might be able to help, if you can get to them.

OP, just wanted to let you know I'm sending positive vibes your way (for what it's worth). I second seeing if there are student health services, get the use out of them. You're paying tuition and should have access to services.

I hope things improve for you, OP!

Get professional help, OP. Get help as soon as possible.

I started to say, "In other words, grad school." But now I'm actually worried for you, OP.

Is it the onset of schizophrenia or just grad school? Not enough information.

It may be time to give up on that program. But talk to your adviser first at the very least. Possibly also a trusted clergyman or mental health professional, something like that.

This is that point where you realize you need to seek professional help. Not internet 'help' but the real deal. There's 'stressed' and then there's what you're going through and what you're going through needs someone trained to help you sort it out and figure out how to deal with it. Go get the help you need, OP. This isn't the kind of thing you should just hope goes away.
