I didn't quit drinking until 35. I wish I quit at 25! You could always make a doctor appointment and talk to them about the anxiety.
Yesss I want to do it NOW before it then goes into my 30s. I’m CONVINCED I won’t make it another year even if I stop but I’ve been worried I’m dying my whole life haha! Drink is my enemy. When I was pregnant I felt MUCH better and less anxious as I wasn’t drinking at all for 9 months. I’m going to do it again
and have already started. No drink last night
wooo! Xxx
