Harry,
I am sorry to hear you are mixing old meds, new meds and alcohol. This scares me. You have got to quit that so you can pull yourself together enough to make it through work. Keep telling yourself that your new meds take time , and you are strong enough to get through the time before they do.
As far as your friendship goes, all may not be lost. Perhaps when you back off for awhile, he will call. It may not be all you want or need, but it would be better than none at all. Are there any people at work with whom you could try being friendly? I know it's hard. Actually it's quite a joke for me to be giving this advice since I don't have friends either! I have many acqauntances, but nobody who calls, or comes over, or asks me to do things with them. I do have a husband and kids. I love them all, but my husband never wants to do anything or go anywhere, and I can't depend on my children to fulfill my social needs. I have a sister an hour away. We are very close. Do you have any relatives you can talk to?
