well- what brought you to making the decision to go to an AA meeting?
Have you ever spoke to a Dr. about your anxiety? Drinking can cause more anxiety and it becomes a never ending cycle- until you end it.
This site is a great place for advice, support, and friendship. I myself am iin AA and it's been a lifesaver for me.
As for ever being a social drinker? IMO if you are an alcoholic the answer would be no. If you are not an alcoholic then who knows.
