    I feel so much better when I drink, but then I get the worst hangover anxiety guilt. I’m so scared I said, or did, something to offend someone. Even if I know I didn’t do anything bad, I have the worse guilt feelings.

    I get that way as well, honestly I'm a completely different carefree chattering person that won't stop talking when I drink... don't drink much but it's funny how it effects me

    Fitkam90, reading your original post and having suffered from anxiety and depression for as long as I can remember... are you sure we aren't twins?! Down to the detail, I am the same way, honestly and I know this sounds bad but the only time I will not be anxious at gatherings and will be chattering and just carefree is when I've had a drink.

    Lol we may be twins. That's me too! A drink or 2 will always loosen me up and give me the confidence I need. Trouble is, I don't drink often at all haha. Once in a blue moon.

    I'm the same way honestly but what's funny is that when I drink, I won't shut up.... when I'm not drinking, I have so much anxiety I'll be quiet and reserved unless I really feel comfortable with the person

    That is 100% me

    Aww I'm sorry! Hangovers are the worst. It's been a couple years since I've had one

    I have it to. i can relate to having it in grade school. it sucks as far as geing over it. i don't have no advise except chellenge the things that give you trouble. one of mine was driving but now it seacond nature. sure it sill scary but it's not that bad. put me in a crowed room or left with strangers. heck no.. i hate with a passion christmas shopping. to many people

    Omg I hated driving too! I got my license at 16, but did not start driving until 20. I would literally have panic attacks anytime I had to get behind the wheel. Now I'm comfortable driving within my comfort zone. But anytime I have to drive somewhere outside of my usual routes, I get bad anxiety. You can forget about me ever driving out of town lol.

    I didn't get or take my driver's test until I was 20 due to anxiety. My dad harped on me for the four years in between saying that I needed a driver's license, even though I was perfectly fine and content to walk everywhere in town I needed to go or hitch rides from people I knew or their family members.

    I waited until I was 30 to get my licence. I've been driving about 11 years now. it's not bad. I still get anxious in the big city's. when I was first diagnosed with this. I couldn't go Christmas shopping because there was just too many people crowding. it was like being stuck in a packed box. I would panic and have to go outside...don't even get me started on using public washrooms it made me ill
