I drink 1/2 bottle of red each night to keep the bogeymen away.
Anyone else? No-one seems to mention alchohol. Xx

I try to avoid alcohol cuz even tho it helps me fall asleep it makes me wake up during the night. But i'd love to have some beer now
I don't drink any alcohol (or smoke) .....
I have done in the past, particularly when my ptsd was at it's worst & I dreaded going to sleep because of the nightmares. But have made a conscious effort to reduce it as I know it's not the answer for me.
Now, when I do drink, I drink less & have built up to at least 3 days a week when I have nothing. My aim is to only have a drink on a weekend.
I'll get there eventually

I do not drink at all because of the negative effects and all the research say when you have Anxiety you should not its that simple.
, however my nurse said to me the other day that there is no harm in a couple of pints and that I should try and to be honest I was going to but I had a very stressful day yesterday the worst in a long time so I did not, but when I do I will post on here as the peeps who read my post are aware I've cut out tea coffee beer wine chocolate crap pop mind you treated me and all to KFC yum ( but no pop ) yesterday thing is we are all different I've been losing weight as I need to!! beer KFC chocolate is bad for you when your fat so I don't , caffeine I also bad so i avoid it so I have think I may have over done it but I am getting better I am improving I do not take meds ether as they may help. But they are not a cure for Anxioty
But and the big but is I wonder if I gave myself a treat that it might help me if you see what I mean, all work and no play can make jack a dull boy he wonders ?
Hi Stu.
I don't know what meds your on for your anxiety but I'm on Fluoxetine and for the first six weeks I never had a drink. I now go out twice a week and have a couple of pints on a Friday night
and Sunday lunch. I have recently had a review of my meds and the pharmacist said it was ok to have a drink but only in moderation.Hope this is helpful
I sometimes have a glass of whiskey to help me sleep
I eat, its drinkings socially acceptable cousin xx
A glass or two. Has to be some strong stuff otherwise it won't work. I never overdo though. peerdiagnosis.com/how-long-...
