The experts say to avoid alcohol because of the chemical/toxic effects it has on the brain. They compromise with one serving because they see the ability to relax from anxiety as having a beneficial effect.

Getting buzzed or even worse, drunk is strongly advised against. Add the risk of falling or getting aggressive as some do and drinking is a serious issue.

If you are still getting dizzy, you should get a vestibular assessment. There may be some therapies that can help.

If you return to exercising, low impact and low strain exercises are best. Weights often cause muscle tension, especially in the neck and shoulders. This can be a problem.

I work out with a rowing machine. There are plenty of low impact exercises.

Swimming can be good.

Keep in mind that exercise can cause an increase in symptoms that do not manifest until hours or even the next day.
