benzos + alcohol would just make me pass out, but there’s a risk of lowering your inhibitions too much.. I’d stick to the booze and just tell your mates you don’t want to do loads. Thats how I survived when I lived in Reading and was juggling organising parties with a responsible day job..

I am just quite a shy (and austic so people keep telling me) person so I am just more scared about not being able to do the small chat and seeming like a freak if I am honest. And you know me, I do like to be honest.

took 5mg and have had 5 pints over 6 hours so will be fine, I have a high threshold for most drugs know to man (or just like to get more wasted than most). Well, I hope I will be fine, if I start vomiting I will let u know

Main worry is I turn up seeming fucked and make a tit of myself

I am a lot like that TBH in real life (which was also why I tended to cane stuff, but in recent times it makes no real difference, I can be utterly trashed and still quite quiet!)

I’ve found though if your mates are caners no one really gives a shit anyway unless you do something really bad…

you would think that, but I used to get “are you okay mate? whats up” every 2 seconds just because I wasnt grinning my face off and full of banter. And the more people point it out the harder it is.

But I do need to learn to make the best of it and improve the social skills. We will see, hopefully it will be fine.

yeah I get that but people who are genuine friends get used to it after a while…. not everyone is actually extrovert even at social occasions..

I have yet to work out what a genuine friend is really, but there a nice bunch all the same
