Going alone with a thread I posted in the Health Anxiety forum, I'm just curious how much of us with anxiety, on average, drink.
Never
Less than 12 times a year
A few times a month
Only on weekends
Once a day
A couple a day, more on the weekends

Im not much of a drinker to start with, just the odd glass of wine. If I drink anymore, I get side effects from my citalopram
I think I am. Im sure I am, at least I think I must be.

I haven't touched a drop for 3 weeks since I started citalopram .

I'm a rubbish drinker.
I don't like the taste of alcohol for starters and only really drink it to be sociable (at family do's for instance) and even then it is just a glass of white wine.
It only takes me a couple of glasses and I am under the table as well! I remember when I was at university and was plied with numerous bottles of 'Diamond White' cider by well wishing celebrants on my birthday.....I spent all night with my head down the toilet.
NOT pleasant....lol.

I tried drink a few days ago and tbf I dont miss it much. I very rarely drink. I hate hangovers, being sick is the worst thing in the world to me. Hence why Im so panicky about getting pregnant! I do like a drink dont get me wrong but in all honestly with my pills I'd rather try and stay away from drink for a lonnnggg time. Plus I know this sounds strange... but... When I drink the sugar in the drink kills my teeth and I cant eat for several days. I dont drink alcopops because they are savage!! I can do souther comfort but I dont want to drink if I can help it.

Twice a week..3-4 glasses of wine each time...usually on the weekend with company. (I don't like anything stronger than white wine)

I stopped drinking when I started on anti-depressants, but I have been able to start again as long as I don't overdo it. I seem to be able to go up to a couple of pints a day if I want to without ill effects, but don't do this every day. I never like to have too much anyway as my body was never designed to take it! I am physically sick before I get to the stage of being completely wasted.

I used to drink on weekends, But this year I stopped drinking, because it sets off my heart palpitations and tachycardia, I've now become a bit scared of drinking in case it induces a panic attack : (
