Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic

Yes, one should quit alcohol – immediately, completely and permanently...
Alcohol has problems by itself – affects the liver, heart, brain, stomach...
In combination with hypertension, it will be worse –
In combination with anti-depressant and anxiolytic you are taking, there will be drug interaction...

Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
