One glass of wine probably would settle your nerves, but that is not an option. You'd have several and eventuallly you will be worse off than when you started. That's the nature of addiction.
There is a vast array of other things you can do to calm your nerves other than drinking, excercise, any kind of organized activity, reading, cooking, cleaning, working, etc....the key is learning to do these instead of drinking to deal with our issues.
