Why do I drink?

I'm am having trouble sleeping again tonight.  Tonight I keep thinking that the meds and the 3 glasses of wine I drank at a Super Bowl party is going to hurt me or kill me, strange I know!  But, when I drink I get an upset stomach and a faster heart rate and it reminds me of a panic attack, then I start freaking out thinking I am mixing too much, meds and alcohol.  I very rarely drink, so it's not  going to kill me, right?  Does anyone else have this problem when they drink?  I am just overwhelmed with anxiety right now, I wish I could just tell myself it's anxiety and its not going to kill me, I have tried this, but it doesn't work and I continue to panic.  Any other good ideas on how to fight the anxiety or relaxation techniques?

hi panic2004. I stopped drinking almost two years ago bc of my pa. drinking def makes it worst. i don't know what meds your on but drinking and taking meds is not a good idea. I'm not saying it's going to kill you i'm just saying its not healthy.

I drank too last night on my meds, so hard not to do it in such a social atmosphere. Everyone says we should really stay away from the alcohool, beginning to think they're right because when I'm hungover on these meds I'm so wired and mind races more then usual. Im much better off not drinking.
