Will I be able to drink again

My anxiety journey first evolved whilst I was on holiday back in August whilst drinking heavy on a night out... I'm slowly on the verge of getting things back to normal again however as much as I'd love a night out I'm so scared of drinking again and me relapsing !!!

Hello Robynbritton

I think to be safe don't drink as it's not worth relapsing at all.

You'll regret it more than likely so stay doing well and the next day you'll feel really glad you didn't drink all the best Tara xxx

Hi Robin, i used too get terrible anxiety after drinking and hangovers that lasted for days. I don't really drink anymore and i feel much calmer most of the time and it helps the wallet!

It took a long time to sink in that i don't need a pint to have a good night out, good luck.
