"Study Reveals Factors That Heighten 'Hangxiety' After a Night of Drinking"

Australian researchers confirm hangxiety is a real phenomenon linked to hangover symptoms, revealing connections between alcohol (drug) consumption and heightened anxiety levels.

• The study found a significant association between hangover symptoms and increased anxiety, suggesting that certain individuals may be predisposed to experiencing hangxiety after drinking.
• Researchers identified that the brains response to alcohol (drug) may involve neurotransmitters like Γ-Aminobutyric acid and glutamic acid, influencing mood and anxiety levels post-drinking.
• Participants reporting higher levels of self-criticism and stress exhibited more severe hangxiety, highlighting the interplay between mental health, depression (mood), and alcohol consumption.
