Only you can say whether you are an alcoholic or not. But, the fact that you get anxious after having just one drink is a major sign of addiction/alcoholism. Non-Alcoholic drinkers can drink one and not think twice about it. We can not! I would suggest that you go to an AA meeting and be honest with them. Tell them you want to hear what they have to say because you aren't sure if you are an alcoholic. If you hear your story over and over in the rooms that might be what you need. That's how I knew for sure.
