I'm sorry, but if you are worried about taking Lexapro because of your alcohol use, you have an alcohol problem, not a Lexapro problem. That much drinking is too much, and anxiety will be the least of your problems - in fact, your bodies reaction to alcohol may be partially the cause of your stress. I'm the Mother of a 40 year old with alcoholic cirrhosis (cirrhosis is not curable) and severe anxiety. Now her anxiety is even worse because her liver is basically destroyed.
