“If alcohol is liquid courage, is caffeine liquid anxiety?”

Alcohol has frequently been called “liquid courage.”
 
Caffeine has sometimes been called “liquid anxiety.” “Consuming large amounts of caffeinated drinks is like drinking liquid anxiety,” wrote Dr. John Boghosian Arden in The Heal Your Anxiety Workbook (2009).
 
“If alcohol is liquid courage, is caffeine liquid anxiety?” was posted on Reddit—Shower Thoughts on August 9, 2017.
   
“If alcohol is liquid courage, then coffee must be liquid motivation” is a related saying.
   
         
Urban Dictionary
