When dealing with stressful days or nervous situations, you may be tempted to have a glass of wine or a beer to calm your nerves. However, drinking alcohol, especially heavily and over a long period of time, can actually increase your anxiety.

Drinking alcohol can have serious consequences if you’re being treated for anxiety. Having a drink might seem like a good way to ease anxiety, but you may be doing more harm than good. Alcohol and Anxiety
This article has a lot of good information about the affect of inappropriate alcohol use.

I could not use alcohol with the medications I was prescribed. One of my therapists told me it probably saved my life.
Thanks for this!

Thanks for the article, it's good. I've had the experience of taking just a few sips of beer and having it result in severe panic. Alcohol is not for me.

I can't have alcohol either. All it does is make me tired and grumpy.
