I should add, alcohol is also mostly sugar, so it sure isn't going to help weight loss in most cases.  And if you're taking anti-anxiety medication, it doesn't mix with alcohol.

What medication are you taking?  Many antidepressant, often used for anxiety, are notorious for weight gain, and even relaxants can slow metabolism, but it would depend on how often you're taking them.  So what drugs and how often?  Alcohol is also a relaxant and also slows metabolism, that's the whole point of drinking it.
