Hi Angie,
I also suffer from anxiety and phobias, which I used to self-medicate on a nightly basis with wine. However, the drink will only quell the anxiety in the short-term........in the long-term, the booze will actually heighten your anxiety. I still suffer periods of anxiety, but nowhere near as severe as when I was drinking.

I believe that anxiety can only be addressed by therapy or prescribed meds........drink is NEVER an answer.

I wish you well,

Darling x
