Hi Rl41 -

Wow - can I relate to your post. That tight chest feeling brings back such dreadful memories. That is anxiety at its worst. I know that feeling so well. But I will tell you, that drinking actually causes it. It might take it away for awhile, but after you finish drinking, here comes the anxiety train down that track.

I drank for many reasons - loneliness being one of them. It doesn't make it better at all and it only made me feel like death in the mornings and of course made me feel miserable. It's a vicious cycle and the only way off is to stop drinking.

Problems will still be there, but they will be easier to manage and the one problem you won't have is the crappy hangovers and no energy.

You can do it.
