Only you can decide if you have a problem with alcohol, although to me it sounds like if you don't already have a problem, you might be developing one. It's great that you were able to stop drinking for your pregnancy. And I totally understand the anxiety.

I'd suggest a self-help group for support in not drinking. AA is widely available, and I had good experiences with it, and know many people who got and stayed sober with the support of AA. It however, is no longer my recovery group of choice. I now follow the women for sobriety program. You can google them.

I'd suggest therapy for the anxiety if your insurance will cover it. Cognitive Behanvioual Therapy (CBT) can be very helpful in learning to manage anxiety without having to go to medications.

Congratulations on asking the question about your drinking, and at least thinking about it. That's a great first step, towards having a healthier life.
