Alcohol. A drug?

Posted by J Kelly on March 11, 2016, at 15:49:40

I drink. In fact I just had two vodka cranberries. Its in preparation for a huge family dinner at a Japanese restaurant.
There are times my social anxiety is so bad I want to crawl right out of my skin. A drink or two squashes that instantly. No drug compares.
Am I ashamed? Yes. But some days I simply can't cope. I never get drunk but sometimes I feel it the next day and I think what the h*ll.
I have a drink, maybe two, and suddenly I'm calm. I feel it wash over me and all is right with the world even if only for a short time.
I'm off to do battle with my social anxiety yet again. Wish me luck.
