    Re: acid reflux

    Yes - and of course alcohol is something people turn to when they are anxious. I have given it up completely now I'm on Prozac and surprise, my acid problem has disappeared...

    Acid will respond really badly to certain foods, and alcohol is bad for both that and for anxiety symptoms. There are a lot of people here who are okay with drinking and taking their meds but I feel it is counter-productive for me, a bit like taking painkillers for a bad foot whilst continuing to hit it with a hammer at regular intervals! LOL
