Glad you came right back Horn!
I also struggle with anxiety, and used to think that a glass (or 6) of wine at night helped me relax and be less anxious, but truthfully, it made my anxiety worse the next day.
Your anxiety may initially increase, but it will go down after the first few weeks. Also, seeing your doctor/therapist can help.
One thing I have looked into this year is mindfulness. It has helped me with my anxiety as well. You may want to google it.
