hi zeroempathy,
So glad you are here. In some ways it sounds like you are doing well with long-term employment and being drug free for 4 years. Those are wonderful accomplishments. Do you have any family at all, although I know from experience it's hard to explain things to others.
Are there any mental health clinics in your area where perhaps you could find some therapy for very little cost?
Keep coming here.

Thanks! I am doing well with trying to live a healthier life. I have some family, but there was a lot of dysfunction involved and I thought it was a good idea to remove them from my life. I didn't want to deal with unhealthy people anymore. My gf is very compassionate, patient, and understanding, but I don't like to burden her with my issues so I keep it mostly to myself.
I don't know about the mental health clinics, but I can look into it. The two professionals I saw didn't go very well. They seemed knowledgeable and eager to help, but something didn't seem right about it... thats hard to explain.
