Therapeutic Benefits of Alcohol?

I’m one of those agoraphobics that can’t leave my house. I’m literally trapped. However a single drink allows me to go about my daily life without having panic attacks. I’ve asked many times and doctors won’t prescribe benzodiaspine which are supposedly too addictive. That’s fine, however what I find crazy is the judgement if I communicate using alcohol therapeutically. Something that works so well and that I don’t find addictive. So why don’t people talk about therapeutic benefits of alcohol like they do with marijuana. Why is it so taboo?
