Hey Least
I went through this myself in the beginning. Today I am still not sure if I drank because of anxiety or the drinking caused anxiety.
Don't get me wrong because I started drinking for fun when I started. But years later it helped when I felt nervous. I went to a class to deal with anxiety because it was so bad and I did not want to drink. I was on medication for awhile.
Information on anxiety might give you some relief when you know what it is and how to deal with it. Just trying to help.
