Welcome, Paul!
Congratulations on stopping drinking.
It could be that the alcohol was helping you deal with the anxiety and panic attacks. So, now you are sober, those feelings are still there. As Dee said, talking to your dr could be helpful. I wonder if therapy would be helpful? Meditation is also helpful to calm yourself.

Hi Paul
I'm not a Dr myself - we're all just regular people here, like you
Whenever I'm worried about something I start with my usual GP (neighbourhood family doctor) and work from there?
