I'm not an alcoholic but I drink hellofalot! it helps me so much. I invited friends over mine last weekend and at the beginning I was all nervy, not knowing what to say, as soon as the drink started hitting me we were laughing, dancing, having a great laugh and I got a text the next morning saying how wicked and funny the night was, and that we got to do it more often etc etc, i'm even going away on holiday with them next month now and it means i'm going to have to pack alot of booze....
...This is the story of me though, i'm a totally different person when i'm absolutely drunk and a more fun person! say i'm half-sober and people want me to dance I quickly gulp drinks back so I get drunker and then have the nerves to dance! its terrible. bad for my health and the wrong way to get over my SP but its my only cure, although only temporary. If I had the confidence from what I get out of booze my life would be amazing.

well xanax works the same as alcohol but sif its better for ya health
Im the same drinking takes all my inhibitions away and I am the complete opposite. Im pretty sure its the way i would be without SP
It sounds terrible to admit but I love alcohol! Dunno how I'd have coped in most social situations without it. Worringly, it seems the "real" me emerges after a drink (or two...or three...) and I behave in the relaxed way around strangers the same way I do at home with my family. At parties I usually need more drink than everyone else to appear to be "drunk" like them. I mean, if everyone else is sober and I've had a drink I'd behave the same as everyone else, if that makes sense
I'm the exact same way. If I get a few drinks in me I loosen up. On a couple of occasions, I feel like my personality has almost become the opposite of what it normally is, becoming very sociable. There have also been other times where it has driven me into a deeper depression. I think it has to do with the people around you at the time. If I'm surrounded by mostly strangers when I'm drunk, I tend to get very clammed up and stuck in my own thoughts, with not much to say to anyone else.
I can totally relate to this. I have been drinking on the weekends to socialize, but not a lot. It usually takes me a drink to relax & even start approaching strangers.
But once I realized that my body is getting sick (cause I have candida)
I quit taking it. There are times when I cant resist it. But I am trying my best to find alternatives to alcohol like.. running hard in the hot sun relaxes me & almost feels like i've had a drink.
I find that when I have a couple of drink I start to loosen up a bit. Without it, you could lay me horizontal and do your ironing on me I'd be so rigid.
