I saw a video on YouTube that people on the stopdrinking subreddit were talking about. Kurzgesagt's Alcohol video and now I'm fucking terrified. I already suffer from health anxiety and that video sent me over the edge.

I'm a 38 year old male and I've been binge drinking on weekends for about 20 years. I'm terrified that I've done irreparable damage to me my body. I've had liver enzymes tested and they were slightly above normal, nothing too crazy. I actually stopped drinking for a month once and they were normal. However, I'm still freaking out.
