So just created this account for posting on this subreddit as don’t want to mix it with my normal reddit account so those of you alarmed about new account don’t be!

Disclaimer I am in no way a red pilled guy, far from it but I’m not a push over either and can recognise how much of a blue piller I was previously. I’m doing some reading so I’m understanding what I need to do.

Basically went to my buddy’s 21st birthday party at this house where I knew nobody but him so was already on the back foot. I conversed with a few people at the party and basically tried to get to know people to be polite etc and so I basically wasn’t by myself for the whole party. Was drinking vodka and mixer the whole time. I’m not sure how but it all started hitting me all at once, so 1 minute I was waved but still able to hold decent conversations and the next minute I was a slurring mess and completely forgot everything afterwards. Don’t remember how I got home and certainly made a fool of myself slurring my words and repeating shit over and over. To be honest, I don’t really care, I didn’t know anyone or will ever see those people again and I’m close enough to my buddy to have seen him in worse states etc. I think it’s fair to say as soon as caught myself I made a very swift exit from the party and went home.

I just wanted to know if other people have ever been in similar situations and should I just cut alcohol altogether? Definitely makes me more relaxed and I enjoy it but I’m okay with talking to people sober. Definitely strengthens my social side like most people but I’m in no means a social awkward.
