Hello and welcome to SR

As far as the fear of DTs...you say you have gone a week or so without alcohol. I think you would be safe as far as such a risk is concerned.

as far as ...
i have anxeity disorder
that is something that alcohol can bring out more or hide from sight but still have it be there.
Once you stop, it can slow or go away...or it can remain. If I were you, I would look to seeing someone about ways to deal with the anxiety...with or without stopping the alcohol. One can bring out the other...anxiety could bring out a desire to drink and/or the drinking could bring out the anxiety.
In all cases... any changes we make, we would be wise to see a Dr for a check up and share our situation so we get the best treatment available...sound advise being the best that can be offered.
