I think I have general anxiety since my first panic attack in December 2003. Although I was checked out medically and realise I was prone to the attack due over-indulgence at a wedding the day before, I have since become very aware of my heart's activity.
I have noticed (and now accepted) that my heart rate increases when I drink alcohol but the thing I find less easy to deal with is that my heart tends to skip beats when I have a drink. Oddly, the one time this year I got really drunk I didn't feel one skipped beat during or after the session.
This board has helped re-assure me that there are many of us who worry about our health but I wondered if anyone had had similar experiences of a skipping heart associated with drinking and, if so, what they did about it.
