Your body is aging and its reaction to alcohol may be changing over time.
You should try taking a vacation from it to eliminate it as a full or partial cause of your panic attacks. Alcoholics really can get edgy and irritable when they are not drinking. If you already have diagnosed anxiety, you should avoid anything that might contribute to it.
