Alcohol anxiety

[gw]

I had a drink last night and now I feel horrendous, anyone in the same boat? My anxiety is going crazy!�� Derealisation and deep thinking, I feel really crap today! Anyone have advice or just general chat to say you've felt the same before?

My advice would be don't drink till you have a handle on your anxiety/medication issues.

Even one drink can do a job on one in the middle of emotional issues.

Hi I have the exact same problem.

I do however love socializing, and love letting go and having a few drinks.
The hangovers are torture though and like your symptoms can affect me for 1-2 days minimum.

I find the best thing to do, although it be hard is to get out of the house and walk it off in the countryside with my dog. Sitting in the house doing nothing just allows you to think more about it and in turn make you feel worse.

Positive thinking is a key player too! know that this is a temporary feeling and by every hour going by you will return back to normal.

Hope you feel better soon :)

I had a few too many ciders last friday after a blissful couple of weeks of being almost entirely anxiety free and come saturday morning I found myself plunged straight back into anxiety mode, still not feeling too good this monday lunchtime. So yes, alcohol is definitely not our friend.

I had a frightening incident on Sunday, with chest pains and ended up in hospital. It's now Wednesday and I still feel very anxious with aches and pains, wobbly legs, unreal feeling and others. I had too much to drink on Saturday/Sunday and the doctors think that's what triggered it. I'm a little concerned that it's now Wednesday and I still feel strange.

You are not alone!
