recently I’ve been leaning towards alcohol as a self medication. I have panic disorder and agoraphobia and alcohol helps me do exposure therapy easily. This pattern worries me because I have found myself turning to that before I drive to make it easier. I know I should emphasize the fact that I know that this is wrong for me and could create an addiction, especially because this addiction runs in my family, I just need help with other ways of coping with panic disorder and getting out into social settings.

Drinking and driving is not necessarily the best of combinations. If you choose to drink, can you take an Uber or Lyft or have a designated driver. Also R U on any meds for your panic disorder and agoraphobia ?
Been there. Done that. No advice, just some info. This site has a "Drink Free" forum. It might be a better site to get helpful suggestions.
