I’m like introvert when I’m sober. When I have a drink or more I’m like a social person and a party animal. All my friends think I’m an alcoholic or always drunk even during weekdays. I’m trying to not drink for a while but all my friends force me to drink (peer pressure).
I want to learn how to be me when I’m drunk. How do I get over my social anxiety and get some confidence?
Is something wrong with me ?

Stop drinking 👍 😂
i heard this is common amongst many introverts and shy people.. you need to understand that this is a temporary solution, and work on a permanent solution. here’s a youtube video that i suggest https://youtu.be/eRShR-yO1FI
Weird, you’re saying that your friends accuse you of being an alcoholic but they also peer pressure you into drinking?
I used to be just like you and I always thought of myself as a social person, but when I stopped and looked at my life, I realized that alcohol was significantly impacting my life. I’ve been sober for 3 years.
Quitting drinking is not a cure all. You’ll have to face your problems as they come and you can’t hide behind the veil of alcohol anymore. I’m far more of an introvert now and I struggle in social situations a lot but I’m getting better. From not drinking you’ll learn that drinking really isn’t as fun as you once thought it was, and overtime, being the sober one isn’t that bad. Think back to the time before you discovered alcohol.
I strongly recommend you give it a shot. When I first stopped drinking it was only for 1 month and I just hit my 3 year anniversary 2 weeks ago.
I’m here if you need someone to talk to.
It removes your doubts. I only drink socially so like maybe twice a year? And once I get a little tipsy I can dance and talk without thinking about it. People have that ability naturally. I wish I had it.
