I have an upcoming social event tomorrow.
My class is getting together one last time to celebrate, and there’s going to be alcohol.
My friend and I live close by, and we have a designater driver, but I’m still worried.
What if I get so drunk I start throwing up? What if I throw up in the car?
What if our designated driver and my friend don’t want to leave until very, very late?
What if they think I’m boring because I won’t participate in drinking games?
I also tend to tire rather quickly when I’m in a group of people, and I’m just overall concerned it won’t be a good experience, even though I’m sure it will.
Any tips or tricks to lessen that gnawing feeling in the stomach?
I hope you have a good time. These kinds of feelings are normal, I feel the same way before these types of events. Best advice I can offer? Enjoy yourself, and try not to put too much pressure on yourself. If they are good friends they will understand you not wanting to get too drunk etc. If they find that boring, that’s their problem and maybe they’re not worth impressing anyway??
