Phillipa, I used to drink/binge lots during weekend, and dry out during the week. Eventually did a sober trial for 4 weeks and noticed that my meds worked so much better, and a gigantic difference in my overall mood. Panic and anxiety gone.
My doc said that a couple of beers every now and then would be okay, but I'm not interested anymore... I discovered that even tiny quantities of alcohol affect my mental health (terrible depressant and anxiety trigger). So I quit drinking alcohol altogether 2 years ago, it was painless and so worth it.
