I have this and am an alcoholic... I have had panic attack after panic attack all day today from being hungover and I chugged a half pint of vodka to make it just go away and I still have anxiety. I need to just stop this completely. I keep thinking I'm dying. I'm in a constant state of complete dread. I just want to feel normal again. Ty for this video.
Thank you for sharing! I hope you are doing better! Anxiety will be something you have to face for a few months when quitting alcohol but is worth the rest of your life! Thank you April for the comment and subscribe if you get the chance!
April Lou I know the feeling I down a shit ton of vodka too n tbh it dosent do anything to me now except kill the days away. It's what triggered my attacks now.
Just stopped drinking 3 days ago. I realized a few years ago that it caused major anxiety and panic attacks. Im done for good now. Got back in the gym the last two days and will continue. My anxiety has subsided drastically and have no issue socializing sober now. Im sure ill feel even better as the time passes. I was a 12-15 beers a night a couple times a week. Hang in there and keep yourself busy with other things. I would drink when i was bored and played video games. I focus on exercising, reading and working on my blog to keep my mind occupied.
I had crazy insane panic attacks that would drive me to the hospital..the moral hangovers was the cause of them. And the hangover anxiety,, it's the worst feeling in the world hands down!!. Glad to say I'm going on my 3rd year sobriety, this fall, no alcohol for me ever,,
Wow congrats on almost 3 years!!!! They are the worst after a night of heavy drinking for sure. Wish you the best! Stay in touch, Thanks for the comment, Like the vid, & subscribe if you can!
Yes! 3 years! But I was addicted to alcohol,, I went through delirium tremens, hallucinations, i almost died like numerous times. But I'm here now taking my recovery one day at a time,, glad to know someone that kinda went through the same thing I did! Best wishes to you too, I always enjoy your videos
Me too🙄 but I still have anxiety, just not severe anxiety, it's mild to moderate, and I have my ways of managing it,i work Out a lot, and that helps tremendously,
Alcohol can be such a curse. I started getting anxiety hangovers around about 27 years of age. I will normally get them after the second day if I've been drinking on say....a Friday and Saturday. I get what I call air hunger where it feels like I can't get enough air into my lungs but it's totally linked to anxiety. I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. I would take being nauseous and having a head ache any day of the week over the anxiety hangover. I call it "The Fear". It's horrendous. I just start feeling such an unbelievable failure, everything is magnified and seems worse than it is. Physically I get short of breath, my motor skills are all over the place and the craziest of thoughts float around my mind. Alcohol has also affected my employment over the years. I tend to start doing really well but then I suddenly out of nowhere hit self destruct and end up going on it for 4 - 5 days in a row. Then I will be good again for a month (only drinking on weekends) but then it will happen again. I'm getting quite sick and tired of this cycle. I quit last year for about 5 months but I got so unbelievably bored I ended up going back on it again. My issue is that I don't drink during the week and I am feeling amazing come Friday night. I end up finding it near impossible not to go out or do something involving alcohol. Then it all starts over again. I will drink Saturday and feel the anxiety on the Sunday. Sometimes because I am feeling like crap Sunday I will give in and drink but that just gets my working week off to a terrible start because I am hanging on Monday! Ugggghhh so frustrating
You gotta break this cycle. It will keep going and going. It doesnt stop by itself. Thank you so much for the comment, please keep in touch, and please Subscribe if you haven’t gotten the chance!
Btw for anyone wondering why this is the case, panic attacks and anxiety are tied to GABA receptors Alcohol and Xanax and other similar drugs (even the good sleeping pills like lunesta) all affect GABA receptors in your brain which is why you feel chill and relaxed Alcohol in particular causes an ‘acute withdrawal’ the next day - so you get the opposite of the calm and relaxed fun feeling while you’re drinking - in most people it’s not a huge deal because they don’t have major issues with this , but if you’re already dealing with panic attacks and anxiety it will flare those problems up
Ended up in the er Christmas Day. Realized while laying in the bed thinking I was dying that I need to stop dipping and drinking. I went all week with nothing. Watching football today I grabbed a tin and started laying back beers. Went to be 2.5 hours ago and here I am again. Heart racing and thinking this is the end AGAIN. Did all my tricks took a shower. Counted things. Had my wife scratch my back for a while and I’ve only calmed down slightly. I can’t do this anymore. I hate this feeling. Heart racing. Stomach flipping. This is nuts that we do this to ourselves.
Couldn't agree with you more. So crazy that we know we are going to have a racing heart and a full blown panic attack. Yet, when you go out, it doesn't stop you from drinking. But during the panic, you say to yourself you never drink again if you make it through. Alcohol is so addictive and if the people around you drink, it's very hard to stop.
@@Woudloper it absolutely can be done. I’m over 15 months now sober and tobacco free. My entire life has changed. I sleep like a normal person. I’m tired when I should be. I’m awake when I should be. I will never have a drink or chew tobacco again. So many people say that they envy my self control when it was my total lack of self control that got me here in the first place. I have no self control. Self control is enjoying one drink a day. I’m not that guy and I know that now. I’m one beer away from 3 30 packs a week. I’m one dip away from two cans a day. You can do it you just have to find the switch and flip it.
@@zapsurf1343 Thanks for your reply, very happy to read you turned your life around. Congrats on the 15 month sobriety. I am the same as you. I see certain people enjoying one drink, then just skip to water or ice tea. I am not that guy. I can go days without a drink, but when I have one beer, I won't have any non alcoholic beverages for the rest of the day. I just go in full binge mode. With horrible anxiety afterwards. I was the same with gambling. My friends would lose 50 euro's and have a wonderful day at the casino. I had swings were I was up 16k and left the casino like a zombie, with 25k in the hole. So crazy. I put myself on a black list, so I can't enter casino's anymore. One problem solved. But the drinking is the hard part. I had a horrible depression after losing my house and my mom breaking all ties with me. During that depression, my ex took my kids away from me when I was in recovery in a psychiatric clinic. And that pain and me missing my kids so much it physically hurts, had me start drinking again after 8 years or so. I know that it's not the solution to get them back, but numbing the pain sometimes seems the only thing I can do to not completely lose my mind. Wish you all the best for the future. Grtz from Belgium.
@@Woudloper I still have anxiety and panic issues. They're much more controllable now without the alcohol and nicotine roller coaster but they're still there. Not too long ago one of my favorite songs by the Idles came on and my son skipped it and said I don't like that song it reminds me of you being passed out on the dining room table. That cut real deep. I know I'm an addict and that its a part of me. Just as much as anything else about me. You can stop drinking but you cant stop the addiction. Still when I see a bottle of my favorite whiskey my mouth waters. When I see a can of my preferred dip (Kodiak Wintergreen) I get this strange warm feeling. One thing that I still battle is that some people treat this like its a temporary change. Even my wife trivializes it sometimes because she just doesn't understand addiction. I don't think people truly understand how driven I am to prove them wrong.
They’re horrific aren’t they? I’m embarrassed because I’ve probably had them longer than most people on here (over 15 years) but I still binge drink almost everyday. I have to stop for my sanity because today has been utter hell.
robothestrange I've only Had one panic attack in my life which was when I was high as a kite smoked some good strong weed btw I've only smoked weed 5 times in my left don't really like it, I drink every Saturday sometimes but the next day I always feel abit anxious and jittery feeling of regret etc only if I drink allot on that night but should I maybe just quit drinking all together if I thought this would stop I would quit drinking I don't crave alcohol or anything it's something my mates do when they go out clubbing have maybe even looked in to quoting drinking all together and using a bit to f phenibut if I was going out to a club etc what's ur input on that mate subbed and liked 👍
Bro I really needed this video, I am fine when I don't drink than when I have a big night out I have the worst anxiety and I wasn't sure if it was just me. Now I know thanks man.
Thanks for sharing your story. I have been sober for over 3 months now. I keep my mind occupied by playing my video games, reading, exercising, etc and feel better than ever! I do what makes me happy ☺️

I love the videos you make about alcohol they really help! its like a constant cycle of anxiety then drink to numb it and over and over again ! p.s I just subscribed :)
I couldn´t agree with this video more!!! It is 100% spot on and has been the story of my life for the last two years. My panic attacks are often what I would call borderline panic attacks (sweats and shortness of breath and a feeling of pressure in my head). I have really only had two full on panic attacks, and both times I almost called the ambulance. My panic disorder has ALWAYS coincided with alcohol consumption. I would add one thing though. You had mentioned dehydration and just generally feeling like crap both physically and spiritually (lowered self-esteem and guilt) as being the reasons for the panic attacks that happen after a night of drinking. I personally believe it also has to do with blood sugar levels. When you drink a lot of alcohol, you seriously mess with your blood sugar, and the next day have lower blood sugar than normal as your body tries to rebalance from too much sugar consumption in the form of alcohol the night before. I am not sure this is true, and I am no doctor, but I do listen to my body. The best option is, as you said, to plain flat out quit drinking. However, if you fail at this and are in the morning after situation you described, lots of water and lots of fruit help to restabilize blood sugar and body hydration in a natural way, and this always helps me feel better. I am not talking about cane sugar, but rather fruit sugar. Cane sugar will make you worse. Also, it is now happening that I am not only prone to panic attacks the day after I drink but also even while I am drinking. Last night, I had two glasses of wine before an exam and when I walked into the classroom, I almost fell into a panic attack during the exam. I have to stop drinking - I am getting too old for this shit. I was sober for five years and, even though I no longer drink like I did before, which was suicidal, I have come to realize that any alcohol at my age and with my panic attacks is too much. Oh well, today is a new day. Time to start over again.
Ted Kirk how old are you? I'm 29 n I'll admit I drink more then I need too but I can agree that fruit sugar does help but I'm not saying that's a reason to keep drinking it really does shit too ur body n is a cause for these attacks. I just had my first attack last night at work n had to go to the ER cause I couldn't stop shaking...n I couldn't stand...shit really messed me up is I lost out on a 12 hour shift not to mention mostly all my co workers seen me stagger kick my I had a co-worker who helped me get to the medical room where I finally lost all body function n started shaking badly, couldn't stand, sweating, breathing heavy, vision was blurry, Body was clincing. Shit was last night so sorry it's still a fresh experience scary as hell too.
@@drsiddysadventures551 ah yea. i felt like i was going to die...i drove myself to the ER going about 90 in a 35 MPH zone...lol..then they made me wait 8 hours to see a doctor. then they said it was all in my head there was nothing wrong with me.
@Dan Musketeer the third time the doctor asked if they prescribed any meds for me before i said no. he prescribed Librium for 30 days.. oh that took away all my anxiety.. it worked for a while then i had a couple more after that until after time they faded away and i don't have panic attacks any more...
@Dan Musketeer it gets better and it fades away over time. a good trick is try breathing through a paper bag. it has a calming effect. another thing i like to do is take L-Theanine 200 milligram capsules with my coffee or with no coffee...it takes away those jitters. alcohol is dehydrating so i'd avoid it..you will sleep better and also have more energy without any caffeine or alcohol. good luck with it and stay well.
I am not sure but off late panic attack has been happening for me since 2-3 months and I have realised that even after having a small amount of alcohol, the next day I am having a strong panic attack . Does this mean I can’t drink anymore ?
Thanks a lot brother.... I just had a really bad panic attack.... I was drinking whiskey all day yesterday and woke up to a freak out.... I had to take a couple shots just to stop crying.... I came across ur vids and they helped tremendously.... Thank u and God bless.... I'm gonna check in to a rehab

True shit ! Here is my story. I'm 32 male. I've always drank in moderation but never had a huge problem. Covid hits, and it freaked me out so I found alcohol to help and I would drink and currently still drink every single day. Whiskey shots, beer, white claw whatever you name it. Therefore once I started having panic attacks I thought it was covid but no its how I was coping from covid. Yesterday I had a panic attack while driving mid day not a single thing as a trigger it just came from nowhere so what do I do I buy a bottle of whiskey and drink a whole fifth and felt good obviously I was drunk no more panic attack. Today I woke up with horrible hang over and boom even stuck and a 10x worse panic attack. So bad that they feel like you need to run for the ER or you're going to die. It's the alcohol doing this and now I'm trying to figure out how to stop this shit and quit drinking because now when I stop drinking in the evening I'm all jittery. This shit is horrible. Just a long story short don't pick up alcohol to cope with anything its so hard to break this cycle. Love yall stay strong
I occasionally drink, like once in a year! Recently I had 4 pegs and when I felt like to pee, I was scared to go to the toilet, I felt as it will trap me inside and I'ma be this drowsy forever; also the toilet rooms seemed getting deeper and darker! I freaked out, breathlessness, confusion, scared, I was repeating my sentence, heart racing, all of it altogether! I'm already dealing with depression and anxiety! I'm little insomniac who sometimes gets series of sleep paralysis! You know, the amount of anxiety cause by alcohol consumption can indirectly kill you so painfully! ❤️I'm sending the tight hugs and love whoever feel that they're alone in this! ❤️
I thought I was good and in control, I am not. I've have 2 panic attacks that got to the point I literally thought I was dying. The last time I wad pulled over in a gas station hanging out the window begging for someone to pray for me. I'm a Marine and have done my fair share of unspeakables but that literally almost scared me to death. I thought I was right with God, now i don't know.
100% truth in my case,I actually got my first panic attack after drinking a lot,and yea I have felt great last few days till i went outside yesterday and drank plenty of beer,so now I am dealing with sensations all over me.Thx for sharing your experience!
Glad I found this I’m in the middle of a bender and I’m just drinking to calm my nerves to get out of bed so thank you. Hoping 2 days off work I’ll just drink water and rest but this is not working
I drank a lot of white wine, starting before New years Eve. I woke up new years day and couldn't eat or even hardly drink, and spent the whole day vomiting. I was on the edge of a full blown panic attack all day and had many small ones that were scary enough, full of irrational fears. At night about 10 pm the biggest panic attack of my life hit me, I thought I was gonna die from the hangover, but when I got the panic attack the left side of my chest tightened, I thought I was going to die... Thank god a good friend was on messenger to distract me and supported me or I'd have maybe gone to ER. Last night coming down from this monster attack I didn't sleep at all and carried on having mini attacks. I don't wish this experience on anybody and I'm thankful for being alive. Peace
I swear I just left a comment on ur other video about this. I definitely need to do the same last night's attack was no joke. I'm glad I found this channel.
Damn Friday night I got wrecked Saturday had the worst panic attack went to a family BBQ decided to have at it again got 6 beers down panic attack again got home anxiety today Sunday 9pm u can still feel the booze in the system
This just started happening to me recently and it comes on full blast when I get behind the wheel. I don't drink and drive obviously but the day after I get wasted driving is almost impossible for me. Scary stuff and I need to put the bottle down. Thank you for this video brother
I suddenly started having panic attacks after a line of cocaine. Had a full blown panic attack right then and there. Thought I had got a bad batch or something or was overdosing so i went to the hospital with a heart rate of 160bpm. They said i was fine and it was just a panic attack and that stimulants mixed with anxiety is not a good combo. I had never really done coke before either so. Now I get panic attacks regularly sometimes daily. Sometimes ill think about the time i did coke and itll send me into a full blown panic attack out of nowhere. Dont know what to do about it, i hate feeling like this
Thank you so much man I thought I was the only one going through this I tried to stop 3 to 4 days and I just can’t help myself then I wake up sick all over again anxiety panic attacks there’s times that I just don’t want to be here but you’re right I will stop drinking thank you so much man
Same, instead of focusing on things that are going on around me, I start to focus on my heartrate, which is elevated after drinking. Then the overthinking and scanning my body starts. I get horrible palpitations and sweats, and feel like I am leaving my body or feel that I can't breathe. I am so anxious that I get twitches in my entire body. I don't know why I keep doing this to myself. Wish you all the best.
Same here bro.,., I use to drink occasionally not everyday but whenever I drink it's binge drinking and I would wake up in the middle of the night with a pounding heartbeat feels like my heart gonna explode.,., felt dizzy with severe anxiety and panic attack I thought I was gonna die or am having a heart attack.,., I somehow went to the fridge took couple of ice cubes and grab it hard with my hands my heart beat dropped but anxiety didn't go away., it's good to know that am not alone brother., please do share how did you get out of this mess
i still haven’t full came back from mine im 18 would drink with my homies all the time august first i had the worst panic attack of my life after a night of drinking its now october and im still not all the way the same august was so hard for me lost my job cause i couldnt stop panicking and leaving this anxiety shits no joke unfortunately some people dont understand what a severe panic attack feels like
Yeah, this is fucking true... I had a drink last week, the day after that.. men, worse shit feeling i got... Then ive stop for awhile, try to drink again after 4 days... Again, the day after that, well, same shit... The problem is.. ive tried to drink just one bottle, 45 mins ago.... There it is, it just trigger! Pressure on my head, heart start to paltipate... I have to stop...... The reason im watching this... Thanks for this man.. i think i really need to stop drinkin... Fuck! Im going to miss drinking... 😫
I had the biggest breakdown after 4 days of drinking due to the corona situation. I was paralized in fear for 5 days after, couldn't eat, Just taking sedatives to sleep. As soon as I'd wake up I'd get a panic attack. Alcohol is evil and will make panic unbearable. Thank god a friend came over, took me to the shower huged me and gave me some soup and helped me clear my flat as I couldn't even get out of bed to clear all the beer cans. I'm gonna give up, it's either that or I'll probably kill myself after a binge. My heart goes out to you all.
Going through this shit right now. Its hell. Years ago weed would trigger panic attacks in me so I stopped. Now being hungover feels like I'm stoned. Feel like I'm gonna die
Booze used to help with my anxiety for years. Now it barely numbs my situation, alot of times makes my anxiety unbearable the next day, I would wake up with racing heart and panic sometimes even 2 hours after falling asleep. smh
Thanks for sharing man .. this has been so helpful...I have had over 3 attacks now..just last week bro I really thought I was gona die..my legs went numb together with my hands...does the panic attacks also coz numbness
hey trey I'm from Sydney Australia I can relate to this I had a drink last night woke up today almost a full blown attack but I calmed it down pretty quick my heart full racing felt dizzy and felt like I wanted to escape but you can't .can you still feel dizzy and not your self after a couple of hours later after you almost had a panic attack
Hey Justyn! Sorry it took me a while to see this. How are you doing? Are you dealing with panic attacks? Thanks for reaching out and Subscribe if you can!
I got panic disorder after having so much financial issues and getting back into weed at the start of 2020 but after getting on a new med they've been well controlled and stopped for months, but then started drinking a bit at night to get drunk and I'm a lightweight so yeah, you feel great and energized at first but then over time the more of an alcoholic you become like you said you're dehydrated and your nervous system is getting changed from the dopamine and GABA changes, also double so if ur throwing up ur digestive system is inflamed. Anyways, the next day the hangover would just be anxiety and stomach pain. I need to stop. Am I an alcoholic? If I can go these next three days with not a drop I'll prove to myself I can do this shit.
can we ever drink again if we work on the anxiety /panic attack as in coping skills meditation Gaba supplements and more or is that a no go thanks if you reply
Hey man I do not know if you’re still active on this channel, but I recently have had a few panic attacks in the past few months based on heavy drinking, when I go a few days drinking all day every day I’m definitely going to have one but it seems when I drink only at night and hydrate and eat before I go to bed I’m not gonna have them, do you think that if I stop now it won’t be too late or do you think if I continue to drink my moderate ways I will not continue to have them, thank you for the video it made me feel like I was not alone.
Im an alcoholic. I always get those fucking panic attacks while hangover. I've been drinking for 3 days. Haven't eat or drink water and it's like +30celsius outside. Waiting for that hangover while im still drunk... it's gonna be bad.

3 weeks of not drinking i feel better by the day!!!
Going through this right now. One of the worst panic attack I’ve ever had it all because I drink last night
Yeah its called an anxiety hangover. Its terrible. I hope you learn and use this as motivation for the future :)

Me too🙄 but I still have anxiety, just not severe anxiety, it's mild to moderate, and I have my ways of managing it,i work Out a lot, and that helps tremendously,
How long have you been sober for now?
Alcohol can be such a curse. I started getting anxiety hangovers around about 27 years of age. I will normally get them after the second day if I've been drinking on say....a Friday and Saturday. I get what I call air hunger where it feels like I can't get enough air into my lungs but it's totally linked to anxiety. I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. I would take being nauseous and having a head ache any day of the week over the anxiety hangover. I call it "The Fear". It's horrendous.
I just start feeling such an unbelievable failure, everything is magnified and seems worse than it is. Physically I get short of breath, my motor skills are all over the place and the craziest of thoughts float around my mind. Alcohol has also affected my employment over the years. I tend to start doing really well but then I suddenly out of nowhere hit self destruct and end up going on it for 4 - 5 days in a row. Then I will be good again for a month (only drinking on weekends) but then it will happen again.
I'm getting quite sick and tired of this cycle. I quit last year for about 5 months but I got so unbelievably bored I ended up going back on it again. My issue is that I don't drink during the week and I am feeling amazing come Friday night. I end up finding it near impossible not to go out or do something involving alcohol. Then it all starts over again. I will drink Saturday and feel the anxiety on the Sunday. Sometimes because I am feeling like crap Sunday I will give in and drink but that just gets my working week off to a terrible start because I am hanging on Monday! Ugggghhh so frustrating

You sound exactly like me. I get the air hunger thing coupled with severe cardiophobia and health anxiety acid reflux etc
Btw for anyone wondering why this is the case, panic attacks and anxiety are tied to GABA receptors
Alcohol and Xanax and other similar drugs (even the good sleeping pills like lunesta) all affect GABA receptors in your brain which is why you feel chill and relaxed
Alcohol in particular causes an ‘acute withdrawal’ the next day - so you get the opposite of the calm and relaxed fun feeling while you’re drinking - in most people it’s not a huge deal because they don’t have major issues with this , but if you’re already dealing with panic attacks and anxiety it will flare those problems up
Ended up in the er Christmas Day. Realized while laying in the bed thinking I was dying that I need to stop dipping and drinking. I went all week with nothing. Watching football today I grabbed a tin and started laying back beers. Went to be 2.5 hours ago and here I am again. Heart racing and thinking this is the end AGAIN. Did all my tricks took a shower.

That cut real deep. I know I'm an addict and that its a part of me. Just as much as anything else about me. You can stop drinking but you cant stop the addiction. Still when I see a bottle of my favorite whiskey my mouth waters. When I see a can of my preferred dip (Kodiak Wintergreen) I get this strange warm feeling. One thing that I still battle is that some people treat this like its a temporary change. Even my wife trivializes it sometimes because she just doesn't understand addiction. I don't think people truly understand how driven I am to prove them wrong.
I've been having them too. 99% of the time it's been from after drinking.

Same bro
Same :/
They’re horrific aren’t they? I’m embarrassed because I’ve probably had them longer than most people on here (over 15 years) but I still binge drink almost everyday. I have to stop for my sanity because today has been utter hell.
Wow I don't feel so alone all of a sudden. I'm going through that exact same thing right now and it is hell.

robothestrange I've only Had one panic attack in my life which was when I was high as a kite smoked some good strong weed btw I've only smoked weed 5 times in my left don't really like it, I drink every Saturday sometimes but the next day I always feel abit anxious and jittery feeling of regret etc only if I drink allot on that night but should I maybe just quit drinking all together if I thought this would stop I would quit drinking I don't crave alcohol or anything it's something my mates do when they go out clubbing have maybe even looked in to quoting drinking all together and using a bit to f phenibut if I was going out to a club etc what's ur input on that mate subbed and liked 👍
Thank you so much!!! How have you been lately?
I am right now but they don't hurt me anymore.. leg feels weird an chest thing keeps making noises lol

I love the videos you make about alcohol they really help! its like a constant cycle of anxiety then drink to numb it and over and over again ! p.s I just subscribed :)
I couldn´t agree with this video more!!! It is 100% spot on and has been the story of my life for the last two years. My panic attacks are often what I would call borderline panic attacks (sweats and shortness of breath and a feeling of pressure in my head). I have really only had two full on panic attacks, and both times I almost called the ambulance. My panic disorder has ALWAYS coincided with alcohol consumption. I would add one thing though. You had mentioned dehydration and just generally feeling like crap both physically and spiritually (lowered self-esteem and guilt) as being the reasons for the panic attacks that happen after a night of drinking. I personally believe it also has to do with blood sugar levels. When you drink a lot of alcohol, you seriously mess with your blood sugar, and the next day have lower blood sugar than normal as your body tries to rebalance from too much sugar consumption in the form of alcohol the night before. I am not sure this is true, and I am no doctor, but I do listen to my body. The best option is, as you said, to plain flat out quit drinking. However, if you fail at this and are in the morning after situation you described, lots of water and lots of fruit help to restabilize blood sugar and body hydration in a natural way, and this always helps me feel better. I am not talking about cane sugar, but rather fruit sugar. Cane sugar will make you worse. Also, it is now happening that I am not only prone to panic attacks the day after I drink but also even while I am drinking. Last night, I had two glasses of wine before an exam and when I walked into the classroom, I almost fell into a panic attack during the exam. I have to stop drinking - I am getting too old for this shit. I was sober for five years and, even though I no longer drink like I did before, which was suicidal, I have come to realize that any alcohol at my age and with my panic attacks is too much. Oh well, today is a new day. Time to start over again.
Ted Kirk how old are you? I'm 29 n I'll admit I drink more then I need too but I can agree that fruit sugar does help but I'm not saying that's a reason to keep drinking it really does shit too ur body n is a cause for these attacks. I just had my first attack last night at work n had to go to the ER cause I couldn't stop shaking...n I couldn't stand...shit really messed me up is I lost out on a 12 hour shift not to mention mostly all my co workers seen me stagger kick my I had a co-worker who helped me get to the medical room where I finally lost all body function n started shaking badly, couldn't stand, sweating, breathing heavy, vision was blurry, Body was clincing. Shit was last night so sorry it's still a fresh experience scary as hell too.
bruh im in the same position it feels like im dying
hang in there jaden! best wishes
Ssme here
Same here.
i been to the ER 3 times foe panic attacks i dont get them no more but in my late 20's early 30's i had some severe ones.
Did you feel like you had a heart attack???
@@drsiddysadventures551 yes absolutely it is like this.
@@drsiddysadventures551 ah yea. i felt like i was going to die...i drove myself to the ER going about 90 in a 35 MPH zone...lol..then they made me wait 8 hours to see a doctor. then they said it was all in my head there was nothing wrong with me.
@Dan Musketeer the third time the doctor asked if they prescribed any meds for me before i said no. he prescribed Librium for 30 days.. oh that took away all my anxiety.. it worked for a while then i had a couple more after that until after time they faded away and i don't have panic attacks any more...
@Dan Musketeer it gets better and it fades away over time. a good trick is try breathing through a paper bag. it has a calming effect. another thing i like to do is take L-Theanine 200 milligram capsules with my coffee or with no coffee...it takes away those jitters. alcohol is dehydrating so i'd avoid it..you will sleep better and also have more energy without any caffeine or alcohol. good luck with it and stay well.
I am not sure but off late panic attack has been happening for me since 2-3 months and I have realised that even after having a small amount of alcohol, the next day I am having a strong panic attack . Does this mean I can’t drink anymore ?
Thanks a lot brother.... I just had a really bad panic attack.... I was drinking whiskey all day yesterday and woke up to a freak out.... I had to take a couple shots just to stop crying.... I came across ur vids and they helped tremendously.... Thank u and God bless.... I'm gonna check in to a rehab

True shit ! Here is my story. I'm 32 male. I've always drank in moderation but never had a huge problem. Covid hits, and it freaked me out so I found alcohol to help and I would drink and currently still drink every single day. Whiskey shots, beer, white claw whatever you name it. Therefore once I started having panic attacks I thought it was covid but no its how I was coping from covid. Yesterday I had a panic attack while driving mid day not a single thing as a trigger it just came from nowhere so what do I do I buy a bottle of whiskey and drink a whole fifth and felt good obviously I was drunk no more panic attack. Today I woke up with horrible hang over and boom even stuck and a 10x worse panic attack. So bad that they feel like you need to run for the ER or you're going to die. It's the alcohol doing this and now I'm trying to figure out how to stop this shit and quit drinking because now when I stop drinking in the evening I'm all jittery. This shit is horrible. Just a long story short don't pick up alcohol to cope with anything its so hard to break this cycle. Love yall stay strong
Thank you very much for taking the time to make this video
I gave up drinking because of panic attacks I’m to scared to even drake a sip
How are you doing now?
I occasionally drink, like once in a year! Recently I had 4 pegs and when I felt like to pee, I was scared to go to the toilet, I felt as it will trap me inside and I'ma be this drowsy forever; also the toilet rooms seemed getting deeper and darker! I freaked out, breathlessness, confusion, scared, I was repeating my sentence, heart racing, all of it altogether! I'm already dealing with depression and anxiety!
I'm little insomniac who sometimes gets series of sleep paralysis!
You know, the amount of anxiety cause by alcohol consumption can indirectly kill you so painfully!
❤️I'm sending the tight hugs and love whoever feel that they're alone in this! ❤️
I thought I was good and in control, I am not. I've have 2 panic attacks that got to the point I literally thought I was dying. The last time I wad pulled over in a gas station hanging out the window begging for someone to pray for me. I'm a Marine and have done my fair share of unspeakables but that literally almost scared me to death. I thought I was right with God, now i don't know.
100% truth in my case,I actually got my first panic attack after drinking a lot,and yea I have felt great last few days till i went outside yesterday and drank plenty of beer,so now I am dealing with sensations all over me.Thx for sharing your experience!
you are very welcome!! yeah drinking and panic attacks go hand in hand unfortunately. Thanks for your comment and subscribe if you are able!
Thank you for this. Every morning I wake up after drinking, I have severe panic attacks. Paralyzing, terrifying, and fearful.
Me too 😭😭
Glad I found this I’m in the middle of a bender and I’m just drinking to calm my nerves to get out of bed so thank you. Hoping 2 days off work I’ll just drink water and rest but this is not working
I drank a lot of white wine, starting before New years Eve.
I woke up new years day and couldn't eat or even hardly drink, and spent the whole day vomiting.
I was on the edge of a full blown panic attack all day and had many small ones that were scary enough, full of irrational fears.
At night about 10 pm the biggest panic attack of my life hit me, I thought I was gonna die from the hangover, but when I got the panic attack the left side of my chest tightened, I thought I was going to die... Thank god a good friend was on messenger to distract me and supported me or I'd have maybe gone to ER. Last night coming down from this monster attack I didn't sleep at all and carried on having mini attacks. I don't wish this experience on anybody and I'm thankful for being alive. Peace
I swear I just left a comment on ur other video about this. I definitely need to do the same last night's attack was no joke. I'm glad I found this channel.
Thanks! Im glad you found it too! Hope you can get some good info out of it! Subscribe if you can!!!!
Way ahead of u
Awesome Thanks!
Damn Friday night I got wrecked Saturday had the worst panic attack went to a family BBQ decided to have at it again got 6 beers down panic attack again got home anxiety today Sunday 9pm u can still feel the booze in the system
This just started happening to me recently and it comes on full blast when I get behind the wheel. I don't drink and drive obviously but the day after I get wasted driving is almost impossible for me. Scary stuff and I need to put the bottle down. Thank you for this video brother
This is so weird. I am in exact same boat
@@wyattbagwell5235 cbd has really been helping me. Give it a try brother
I can't decide if drinking and panic attacks are better than the loneliness.
I suddenly started having panic attacks after a line of cocaine. Had a full blown panic attack right then and there. Thought I had got a bad batch or something or was overdosing so i went to the hospital with a heart rate of 160bpm. They said i was fine and it was just a panic attack and that stimulants mixed with anxiety is not a good combo. I had never really done coke before either so. Now I get panic attacks regularly sometimes daily. Sometimes ill think about the time i did coke and itll send me into a full blown panic attack out of nowhere. Dont know what to do about it, i hate feeling like this
Just came from a walk because i believe i was catching a panic attack.
i hate panic attacks. flood of adrenaline to the head and it's crazy. too intense for anyone to handle.
yes.....i cant stand them. i do not miss them one bit! Thanks for the comment. i hope you are doing well and subscribe if you get the chance!
Thank you so much man I thought I was the only one going through this I tried to stop 3 to 4 days and I just can’t help myself then I wake up sick all over again anxiety panic attacks there’s times that I just don’t want to be here but you’re right I will stop drinking thank you so much man
It's such a shitty cycle huh.. I'm in the exact same place
Thanks,just listened to this twice as over drank yesterday and have had rubbish sleep and getting worse palpitations x
Bro ur channel is so norm like no expensive camera 🎥 or editing but it’s one the best out there 💯 ur such a cool, easygoing, wise dude!
Drank 10 large beers after a month of not drinking and I've spent the last 3 days freaking out with panic and anxiety. The Alcohol has to go for good.
I had the excact same last night i felt like i was dying, i already feel alot better. No alcohol for me anymore.
@@vinnieflex6503 I'm 8 months free of Alcohol and no more panic and extreme anxiety. My head is clearer and I don't miss it at all. Good luck!!
@@winterdogmusic So good to hear youre doing well man! Thank you very much.
Going through this right now, how long did it take you to feel better? I’m on day 4 right now anxiety is horrible i’m a bit traumatized.
I have almost the same thing. I get anxiety attacks when i’m drunk and alone. Like, after the party is over and i’m just overthinking and scared
Same, instead of focusing on things that are going on around me, I start to focus on my heartrate, which is elevated after drinking. Then the overthinking and scanning my body starts. I get horrible palpitations and sweats, and feel like I am leaving my body or feel that I can't breathe. I am so anxious that I get twitches in my entire body. I don't know why I keep doing this to myself. Wish you all the best.
Same here bro.,., I use to drink occasionally not everyday but whenever I drink it's binge drinking and I would wake up in the middle of the night with a pounding heartbeat feels like my heart gonna explode.,., felt dizzy with severe anxiety and panic attack I thought I was gonna die or am having a heart attack.,., I somehow went to the fridge took couple of ice cubes and grab it hard with my hands my heart beat dropped but anxiety didn't go away., it's good to know that am not alone brother., please do share how did you get out of this mess

Im going through it right now...i feel like im dying
Hope u feeling better bro
I had the biggest breakdown after 4 days of drinking due to the corona situation. I was paralized in fear for 5 days after, couldn't eat, Just taking sedatives to sleep. As soon as I'd wake up I'd get a panic attack. Alcohol is evil and will make panic unbearable. Thank god a friend came over, took me to the shower huged me and gave me some soup and helped me clear my flat as I couldn't even get out of bed to clear all the beer cans. I'm gonna give up, it's either that or I'll probably kill myself after a binge. My heart goes out to you all.
Bless you for making this video 🙌
Going through this shit right now. Its hell. Years ago weed would trigger panic attacks in me so I stopped. Now being hungover feels like I'm stoned. Feel like I'm gonna die
Booze used to help with my anxiety for years. Now it barely numbs my situation, alot of times makes my anxiety unbearable the next day, I would wake up with racing heart and panic sometimes even 2 hours after falling asleep. smh
Hey trey u have helped me so much I appreciate you and love u for it ... Thanks
Thanks for sharing man .. this has been so helpful...I have had over 3 attacks now..just last week bro I really thought I was gona die..my legs went numb together with my hands...does the panic attacks also coz numbness
hey trey I'm from Sydney Australia I can relate to this I had a drink last night woke up today almost a full blown attack but I calmed it down pretty quick my heart full racing felt dizzy and felt like I wanted to escape but you can't .can you still feel dizzy and not your self after a couple of hours later after you almost had a panic attack
Happening to me right now it's pure hell a vicious cycle
Me too hangovers Give me anxiety and panic attacks
I really need help right now
Hey Justyn! Sorry it took me a while to see this. How are you doing? Are you dealing with panic attacks? Thanks for reaching out and Subscribe if you can!
I feel like I just had one because I drank whiskey for 2 or 3 nights straight. It didn’t last that long but it’s enough to not even want to risk it
Same thing happened to me at 42 years old. First time in my life of drinking. It was a 3 day Binger, lack of sleep, dehydration and hard liquor.
I got panic disorder after having so much financial issues and getting back into weed at the start of 2020 but after getting on a new med they've been well controlled and stopped for months, but then started drinking a bit at night to get drunk and I'm a lightweight so yeah, you feel great and energized at first but then over time the more of an alcoholic you become like you said you're dehydrated and your nervous system is getting changed from the dopamine and GABA changes, also double so if ur throwing up ur digestive system is inflamed. Anyways, the next day the hangover would just be anxiety and stomach pain. I need to stop. Am I an alcoholic? If I can go these next three days with not a drop I'll prove to myself I can do this shit.
it is a horrible feeling im going through the same thing
Thank you for this. Im in this right now today. My gosh i feel like im going crazy.
can we ever drink again if we work on the anxiety /panic attack as in coping skills meditation Gaba supplements and more or is that a no go thanks if you reply

Very good advice
i had one few hours ago. It was bad.
Hey Jonathan! I am so sorry to hear that. They are horrible. Are you doing better now? Thanks for your comment and subscribe!
When I start feeling one come on I drink 2 beers tho 😭
Can you have panic attacks while being drunk?
Hey man I do not know if you’re still active on this channel, but I recently have had a few panic attacks in the past few months based on heavy drinking, when I go a few days drinking all day every day I’m definitely going to have one but it seems when I drink only at night and hydrate and eat before I go to bed I’m not gonna have them, do you think that if I stop now it won’t be too late or do you think if I continue to drink my moderate ways I will not continue to have them, thank you for the video it made me feel like I was not alone.
Im an alcoholic. I always get those fucking panic attacks while hangover.
I've been drinking for 3 days. Haven't eat or drink water and it's like +30celsius outside.
Waiting for that hangover while im still drunk... it's gonna be bad.
Thank you so much.
