Oh bless you Sam! Well done for sharing this – it’s so important to make anxiety a talking point.
Honestly I’d never heard of this before but it totally makes sense! I used to get this (not so strongly, but I recognise some of the feelings) while at college and uni because I was always in a crowd who would document the whole night with photos and upload the photos the next day, which made me feel sick because I hated seeing photos of myself drunk and it used to make me feel so anxious.

I’m so sorry that you still suffer from this 🙁 it truly sucks. Not worth it though for the suffering it causes, and I know there are plenty of ways to have a good night without drinking 🙂 xx

I can relate to this post so so much. I haven’t got drunk in 3 years now because of hangover anxiety! The most I will have is 1 glass of something, usually wine. Because I know I won’t get any effects the next day. It’s so horrible and I can defo relate! Xx

Oh. My. Gosh. You have just utterly nailed why I don't drink!! I never even realised it was a thing. I'd wake up totally skewered by fear, that I'd been so horrendous everyone hated me, that I'd somehow flashed the whole pub, despite wearing a tshirt and jeans and remembering the whole night & knowing I was being ridiculous!! I suffer from general anxiety, (only realised that's what it was recently), but I never made this connection. Thank you for writing this.
