I want to try being sober for a week or two. I shouldn't have to take hand fulls of drugs and alcohol just to quell the constant feelings of panic. I fear I may accidentally end up killing myself. They don't even dissolve this constant overwhelming anxiety and panic, just sort of lesson it to a degree. It's a lingering demon that IS me at this point. I am my panic attacks and I am my social anxiety, and as much as I don't want it to define me, it does.
I seriously need to find a way to cope that allows me to even go outside and hold down a two second conversation without dying inside. I just..... can't do this anymore. I can't function on the most basic levels without taking handfuls of drugs. I'm ruining my already neurotic and unstable mind, as well as surely wreaking havoc on my body. I don't even have memories of a lot of nights any more. I just wish I knew how to function as a basic human in this society, it's ridiculous.
