Using alcohol to help with your anxiety is a short term, losing strategy. At best, it will help you with that particular moment but it won’t help you address the issues deep down. At worst, it’ll ruin your health, your life, or quite possibly the lives of people around you. I’ve been a life long stutterer and I used to drink before I played shows (I played in a band a while ago). When I realized I was using the alcohol as a crutch for my anxiety, I quit drinking completely. Haven’t drank in about 10 years now. There are better ways.
