Hi,

It seems from the history that you are suffering from anxiety disorder. First of all, don't feel guilty for alcohol binge on the weekend. The guilt for a binge is adding to the anxiety. Just take a deep breath and relax.

I would not recommend you to drive or travel in this situation. I would advise you to consult a psychiatrist and explain the entire history to the doctor. He/she will advise you some anti-anxiety medications and you will be fine.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Akhil Agrawal, General & Family Physician
