Is there such a thing as a 'dry drunk'? Or a 'dry junkie'?

I was talking with a friend who is very active in support groups and has been in counseling for 30 years. I was saying how I’d been very depressed on Christmas. She said I should go to N,A ( narcotics anonymous), I became kind of irritated, as my drug use was years ago and I don’t think my current problems or thinking have anything to do with it. She said I was being defensive and called me a ’ dry junkie’, and how I wasn’t looking at my recovery the right way. As far as I’m concerned I am recovered, and my angst is more from separation from my family and fear of the future. Is it phsycobabble is or it a real thing, this ‘dry whatever’ stuff?
