Every time I drink now I get sick. The next day I feel horrible. I don’t drink often and I like to go out with friends, but now it just leaves me feeling horrible. When I was younger I never got hangovers or anything now the next day becomes a horror show. I’m super scared right now my whole body’s shaking and I feel like I can’t breathe. When I stand my legs feel so weak. I’m terrified of having a seizure and all the shaking is freaking me out. I feel like I’m dying. Is this aniexty from the drinking or what. Does anyone have this happen.
Can’t drink anymore

Do you take any medication? Might me interaction with the drug and alcohol. I used to drink heavily and would feel this way...just try to hydrate yourself, eat and take naps until you feel better <3

Sounds like you have been drinking way too much. Things like this tends to usually happen when you drink frequently, or have way too much in one go. My suggestion is to try drinking less. If you drink the hard stuff, switch to the stuff that is more diluted, as that does help.
Yes, this.
My psychiatrist told me something similar. Even if you are not on antidepressants, having an anxiety disorder alone makes drinking a very tasteless experience and he said drinking + anxiety won't get along well. It temporarily relieves anxiety but the next day will be full of nausea, tremors and 100% increased anxiety for the following few days.
I was forced to quit even occasional drinking when my anxiety problem started (I wasn't even drinking much) because I felt horrible after increased panics.
Now if I am ever going to drink with friends it's the tiniest amount and a soft drink.
I quit drinking that poison because that’s what it is poison garbage nothing good has ever come of alcohol believe me we are condition at society to drink from an early age we’re giving it a try it’s not a respected drug most people will try alcohol for the first time with their own parents I swing from a beer bottle a little bit a glass of wine let me ask you a question would parents do that with cocaine or heroin or any other type of drug I don’t think so that’s the issue we’re not taught properly alcohol is a drug make no mistake it’s the most dangerous drug in the world and kills more people every day then all drugs combined. Be careful with it it has to be very respected. I am myself Never had a problem with alcohol until I started having panic and anxiety one glass of wine would work then two then three then four and then all hell broke loose and I ended up in the worst spiral of my life nothing but a complete disaster I had to make a decision and so quit drinking. My anxiety is Is still there but at least I don’t have to deal with that terrible feeling some people abuse alcohol and don’t even know it there’s a way to check try not to drink for the next 30 to 60 days and see how you feel if you feel that you need a drink really badly then you have to really start to think about how much you drink all the best of luck to you and be well

Alcohol in any amount can increase anxiety. Moderation is key, as is knowing your current state and whether you can handle it. There's nothing wrong with having a drink from time to time, but on a regular basis it's sure to make anxiety much worse.
I used to drink once or twice a month. A handful of beers each time. It started increasing my anxiety, so I stopped altogether. Now, I'll have a few drinks every now and then, but only AFTER I determine that I'm in a state to do so. I evaluated my recent dealings (if any) with anxiety, and if I've been struggling even a little, I'll avoid alcohol altogether.
