I cant really drink anymore which sucks because with my social anxiety it really helped me to be able to have a few drinks to loosen up my tightly wound anxious *** to get through a night with friends. I always get so nervous if a few friends are getting together and need that little buzz to lighten my overanxious mood. Its not that they are hard to be around or anything they are all great its just me. Im the same way on all holidays or big events. I just simply can not handle alcohol anymore though. I get severely sick then get a hang over for a day or two and depression sets in deep for like a week. So needless to say its not worth it for me to even try anymore.

I never have been much of a drinker anyways would only have 2-3 coors lights and that is me buzzing and well pretty much on the drunk side. Very low tolerance.

Dr tried helping me with all my anxieties with social situations because it does affect my life tremendously. I cant really enjoy my life in a social way anymore because of it. He gave me xanax and they worked so well, too well and I got hooked. Had to go to rehab to get off of them after a few years.
Now I just try to deal with social situations by myself, but I still struggle and most of the time I dont make it to friends get togethers or even some holidays because of it. I have missed out on a lot of my life and my kids lives because of it, not being able to go into over populated places. Its awful and nothing can be done.....Yuck Oh well sorry to go on and on there.
