I used to drink quite heavily in college, and though I did feel just so much more sociable and outgoing, I ended up making a complete a**hole of myself. I developed somewhat of a reputation. It ended up getting really embarrassing. I also have alcoholism in my family. So I cut back. I also thought that downing a few shots of vodka before a presentation once or twice would help relax me (speaking in front of people is my one very serious phobia, to the point that I often feel like I am going to pass out, hyperventilate, can barely speak, etc). But it didn't even help!

Now drinking is different for me. I feel quite mellow and chilled out, but not wild and off the wall like I used to. It actually tends to make me more depressed I think, so I pretty much lay off the alcohol, or only have maybe one drink now and then. I think it's better that way.

I really was tired of making a f**cking a**hole of myself.
