A member asked:
If anxiety is caused by drinking will it go away if i quit using alcohol?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Rule out more causes: Usually people tend to get anxious the morning after due to mild withdrawal. This symptom can stop if it is the only factor. However, some people self medicate with alcohol for anxiety or depressive disorder. This condition and panic attacks have to be ruled out. Also, some thyroid conditions can also be a cause of anxiety or depression.
