I recently started drinking after never really drinking at all. I have noticed that I get some anxiety after drinking. I dont know if its connected but since I started drinking I have a low mood. 

Anyone experience negative effects if alcohol. When I have stopped for about a weej. I notice I feel alot better.

Yeh alcohol always took me to the dark places, alot of negativity. I made a vow to God one day and quit after 3 yrs, one year of drinking around 3 or times a week heavily.

Why did you start drinking? You mentioned it's a recent thing having never really drunk before... So what started it off? Why do you drink? Create an account and feel free to send a personal message veer. It would help you to be open and discuss this issue in detail so we may help as best we can.

This Pangti might explain why you don't feel like drinking:

 

ਮਾਣਸੁ ਭਰਿਆ ਆਣਿਆ ਮਾਣਸੁ ਭਰਿਆ ਆਇ
माणसु भरिआ आणिआ माणसु भरिआ आइ ॥
Māṇas bẖari▫ā āṇi▫ā māṇas bẖari▫ā ā▫e.
One person brings a full bottle, and another fills his cup.
 
ਜਿਤੁ ਪੀਤੈ ਮਤਿ ਦੂਰਿ ਹੋਇ ਬਰਲੁ ਪਵੈ ਵਿਚਿ ਆਇ
जितु पीतै मति दूरि होइ बरलु पवै विचि आइ ॥
Jiṯ pīṯai maṯ ḏūr ho▫e baral pavai vicẖ ā▫e.
Drinking the wine, his intelligence departs, and madness enters his mind;
 
ਆਪਣਾ ਪਰਾਇਆ ਪਛਾਣਈ ਖਸਮਹੁ ਧਕੇ ਖਾਇ
आपणा पराइआ न पछाणई खसमहु धके खाइ ॥
Āpṇā parā▫i▫ā na pacẖẖāṇ▫ī kẖasmahu ḏẖake kẖā▫e.
he cannot distinguish between his own and others, and he is struck down by his Lord and Master.
 
ਜਿਤੁ ਪੀਤੈ ਖਸਮੁ ਵਿਸਰੈ ਦਰਗਹ ਮਿਲੈ ਸਜਾਇ
जितु पीतै खसमु विसरै दरगह मिलै सजाइ ॥
Jiṯ pīṯai kẖasam visrai ḏargėh milai sajā▫e.
Drinking it, he forgets his Lord and Master, and he is punished in the Court of the Lord.
 
ਝੂਠਾ ਮਦੁ ਮੂਲਿ ਪੀਚਈ ਜੇ ਕਾ ਪਾਰਿ ਵਸਾਇ
झूठा मदु मूलि न पीचई जे का पारि वसाइ ॥
Jẖūṯẖā maḏ mūl na pīcẖ▫ī je kā pār vasā▫e.
Do not drink the false wine at all, if it is in your power.
 

ਨਾਨਕ ਨਦਰੀ ਸਚੁ ਮਦੁ ਪਾਈਐ ਸਤਿਗੁਰੁ ਮਿਲੈ ਜਿਸੁ ਆਇ
नानक नदरी सचु मदु पाईऐ सतिगुरु मिलै जिसु आइ ॥
Nānak naḏrī sacẖ maḏ pā▫ī▫ai saṯgur milai jis ā▫e.
O Nanak, the True Guru comes and meets the mortal; by His Grace, one obtains the True Wine.

Ang 554 (salok mehala 3)

Hopefully that explains why you feel like that and now you have the Guru's input on it aswell.

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
