Alright so yeah whatever...to say im feeling a little tense is an understatement...friday night, saturday night and sunday night..and sunday.....my cousins 20th will have 100 plus people....i cant really get out of these family events.....i do want to go but last night at my sisters party i tried but i felt like everyone else was having too much fun but i tried to stay interested...I couldnt escape either...there were too many people...meh as much as i want to just let go and enjoy these occasions im surrounded by intense egos and loud people....i just feel like an alien unless ive been drinking.....why does it have to be torture?

hey i know what you mean about the drinking thing i could only go out clubbing with my friends if i had had a few drinks before hand and then continuing to drink til i had lost the plot lol (i dont go clubbing anymore)i think youve done really well so far to have gone to 1 family event thats an achievement in itself!and also you made the effort to be interested,so instead of focusing on the next couple of days i think you should focus on how well you did on fri and be proud of yourself!

thanks i always enjoy reading your advice....i have one more then its over....im getting a little used to it but id rather spend a certain amount of time and leave when im ready rather then staying around for the entire day like im trapped....because i just run out of conversation and my mind becomes a cluster of asteroids, and all distorted..like an out of control circus.... :D .......god it was alot to face up to in one week, cant say im more comfortable but i know i can at least show up which im proud of, my cousins are all outgoing and i just became restless after a while..went to the toilet a few times for a breather to release the tension also....

don't worry

Don't worry about family outings, parties, get togethers and so on.

Everybody at one point, fears or hates going to them.


Just relax, eat some, have some good conversation and listen... If it's anything like my family outings, I rarely have to talk.
