I have a lot of panic attacks at night when I've been drinking in the evening. Is this normal?

Hello Ma'am,

Yes, alcohol can cause such attacks. Since alcohol is a depressant of the nervous system, when the body eliminates it it is possible that the "balance" will rebalance and that stimulation will cause such symptoms.

There is not much to do, other than to try to control anxiety as best as possible and reduce alcohol consumption as much as possible.

True to your pleasure,
