I'm desperate, nothing seems to work. Didn't wanna turn to alcohol again but my shyness/social anxiety is ruining my life. Before you say, yes I'm on anti-depressants and anti-anxiety meds, and yes I'm in therapy.
It never worked for me :/ i wouldn't recommend alcohol to solve any of your problems b/c it will just cause more
Alcohol reduces your inhibition, i.e. it allows you to do things you normally wouldn't think of doing. there are other drugs which do this, but most of them are worse than alcohol.
I think long-term therapy is really the healthiest way of overcoming it. It's hard, and it will take very long, but it's better than getting hooked on drugs or doing nothing.
yes, to be sociable. But not to turn into an alcoholic. And they do not mix with drugs. just say no to drugs. I would chose the alcohol.
only if your drunk enough
dont drink booze while on those meds. So if your are in therapy why don't you ask the therapist your question
no, alcohol is never the answer. the best thing to do is just try to move on with life. the thing u lost, u should try to replace the thing u lost
definately not the only way, and if your currently taking any meds i would suggest to not mix the two, instead try to find something else. sorry if im not much help
