Yes stress too can trigger it. That's they key to find out and do other healthier options . Good luck just wanted to give you some ideas to think over
My triggers are stress, depression, boredom and the strange need to relive my youth. Sometimes I can hear a song that sparks off some nostalgia and I'll want to drink. Problems at work and not having enough money can stress me out and I'll want to drink. Sometimes I can be in a really good mood and just fancy it. Biggest trigger is stress and worry. In all cases I drink to escape reality.
