ok i feel silly i dont drink much, but i drank a little just alittle last night and i guess i got kinda buzzed and almost had a panic attack because i was so dizzy. anyone get this?

absolutely!
i dont really have the desire or the occasion to drink typically.....but because it induces panic in me.....i wont even have a glass of wine ....i think it relates to that "thing" where most panic people feel that they have to be in total control at all times and the physical feeling that drinking feels makes you feel less in control. (for me anyway)

Definately!!!

I also don't drink but when I would occasionally (in the past) I would panic. I guess that's the reason why I don't drink and also because I'm not really drawn to it.

I also don't drink because it brings out all of the body symptoms that I have panic over. I think that if you know that it effects you that way you should drink with caution.

"Fear not sayeth the Lord."

I used to drink abit (back before I was pregnant.) My anxiety has "come & gone" over the years and I did used to drink to avoid feeling anxious only to wake up the next day with a full-on panic attack. I have decided that drinking is not for me.

I just saw this thread...glad I'm not the only one. Anybody just about feel like flipping out when drunk?

I think its just like any other panic attack. YOu have to be able to tell yourself its ok and calm yourself. Its just a lil harder when youve been drinking becuz your thougth process is slowed.

alcohol never used to make me feel panicky... until i started having panic attacks. now i really have to watch myself when i'm drinking. i actually used to have a real problem with drinking too much in the past. i know its not good, but i almost miss being able to drink that much without having the anxiety over it.
