I’m curious what other anxious people’s relationship with alcohol is.
If say I’m pretty casual with it, a few days a month I have a glass of scotch, and when I’m out I love cocktails. But I’ve never felt any compulsion to drink.
That being said, I do feel like it’s easier to relax and just be happy when I’ve had a few drinks.
Oh, when I was on antidepressants I felt like I got drink way way quicker, and when I came off I could drink much more without feeling it (not that I drink to get drunk, just in a know your limits way).
As for coffee… I love coffee, like 50% as much as Janeway. I don’t find it really makes me anxious.
My anxiety levels went way down when I quit drinking. I had never made the connection between anxiety and alcohol until I stopped and my anxiety basically disappeared. More than enough reason for me to never drink again.
