Possible for panic attacks to be caused strictly from alcohol alone?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Yes: Some folks have a specific sensitivity to alcohol, which can lead to panic like symptoms. This may be especially common in those with asian descent. It is almost a type of allergy. Some people just cannot tolerate alcohol.
