Getting in state while sober - no problem when drunk?

I've been experimenting with triggers to trigger a more positive/active state. Whenever I feel exceptionally happy or excited I try to snap my fingers a few times. If you do this enough this action will be linked with those positive emotions sort of like how certain songs can instantly trigger negative/positive emotions. If you do this enough you can summon that more positive state with just the action alone.

I keep telling my friends not to rely on alcohol, and no one believes me. "No, I NEED alcohol to have fun, you don't understand!" Oh please...You're acting like you have a chronic illness and you need your medication.

I'm going to tell you what everyone else is telling you. Alcohol is a crutch. Sorry, but it is. I won't point fingers and preach to you, because even I induldge in a couple of drinks, because it helps!

This is the problem with being an adult is we've gained the privilege (or right?) of buying alcohol and it's so easy to reach for it whenever we feel vulnerable or nervous. This is also why I stress warm ups. Warming up by doing light openers to random strangers inside or within the realm of your comfort zone is good. This means asking trivial questions like "where is .....?" or just making small talk to the person at your grocery store. It's easy. You'll feel even more amped up when you do it somewhere higher risk and it goes well.

Think out loud here: The thing about being a child is we were taught to just face our fears whenever the opportunity presented itself (remember when we had to do speeches in front of class/school, perform at concerts?). No alcohol, no sedatives, etc. This allowed for a great learning curve.

Lay aside your inhibitions. Alcohol depresses these feelings and emotions.

It's a process, just relax and do. Try applying the 3 second rule, see something and you have 3 seconds to execute, see a pretty girl, walk up to her and talk. It's going to take practice, but it will become a self enforcing loop. You talk successfully with a girl, your confidence will go up. You confidently talk to girls your appoach anxiety subsides. As a an aside, don't let a bad interaction defeat you. And throw you into a tailspin. Would you care about that when you're drunk? Prob not.

Alcohol reduces your anxiety. That's all. That's why people become alcoholics - it takes away their anxiety.

I don't think theres anything wrong with 3 beers.

What is your State.? I do a mental warm-up, when I go out to meet girls. Just sit still, with close eyes, and imagine doing a set, and then imagine you are doing what you like to do. I prefer to be cool and relaxed, so I imagine being cool and relaxed, no matter what happens. Then you are mentally prepare.

You can't be drunk ALL the time, might as well learn to be in state without it.

I can't really give you a how to, since I'm not absolutely sure his to do it myself.

It just happens when I don't even care about it, but when I want to be in it I can't get it.

Game yourself instead of the girl.

Get rid of the alcohol. It's merely a crutch. If you become too dependent on it you turn into the quasi modo of pick up. Treat it like a methadone type treatment plan. Go out and have a certain number of drinks. Then less the next time. And hey. If that doesn't work... Feed the bitches shots.

The only thing that changes when you are drunk is your (wrong) perception that your actions do not have any repercussions. Realize that the confidence you show when inebriated is always there, you just feel like the social structure of society changes when you are sober. It doesn't. Obviously you have to be more tame if you are not in a club or bar but that does not mean approaching or using lightly suggestive humour is frowned upon. Everyone has a sexual identity 24/7, not just when they are drunk.
