alcohol kept my social anxiety at bay.

I felt like I was going to freak out and did not want to embarrass myself.
again thank you for your comments of support.

i dont know if anyone here would know that feeling better than me. i was a pretty hardcore alcoholic for about a decade, partially because i have a genetic disposition for it but also because of my BPD to quiet that noise that we are all so familiar with. it was the only thing that helped, and since i stopped drinking it has been at times very difficult to be in social situations without it! the only things that have helped me are thc gummies and non-alcoholic beer (i drink a lot of those!)

anyway, i am glad you got yourself out of that situation and it is wonderful that you could communicate those feelings to your husband! keep up the awesome work!
