It looks like you don't need liquor, cigarettes, or gutkha. You already are addicted to these tablets. What you and many people are doing wrong is not supporting your medical treatment with therapy. In counseling you will learn some coping mechanisms that will endow you with techniques to deal with life?s pressures. Apart from that you need to exercise well, sleep well, and eat well. Divorce is very stressful and can be painful too. When you talk to someone who understands, you will find that the pain lessens and you can handle life better. May be you were too dependent on your ex-wife and you have now shifted that dependency on to the drugs. So there may be predispositions in your personality that can easily enslave you to substances. Work on all these matters and you will come out with flying colors.
