Are people who drink alcohol more friendly and social?

I’m graudating college right now, and so I’ve done my fair share of partying – but honestly, I wish I could have partied a little bit more than I did in college.

I’ve notice a trend in college students, though. The kids who used to drink alcohol every weekend and party every weekend always were more laid back, friendly, sociable, and comfortable around other people not only while they were drunk but even when they were SOBER.

My question is: if I start going out more often and partying and drinking, will I become less socially anxious all the time?

I noticed that people who didn’t drink in college were always pessimistic, stressed out, and always critical and judgmental of people who drink (not all, but some are like this). It’s hard to explain, but it just seems like people who drank more often (in a social way) were more loose, free, and comfortable talking with other people, making friends, and socializing.

Seeing as I’m the complete opposite of this, I’m thinking I should start partying and drinking more often. I did a lot of partying freshman year and there is a noticeable difference in the way I acted back then from how I acted senior year when I drank maybe once the entire year… I made most (almost all) my friends freshman year, I wasn’t stressed, I wasn’t pessimistic, I wasn’t jealous of successful people, I wasn’t constantly thinking about critical issues affecting our society, I wasn’t knit-picky and obsessive. I’m just an awkward person now… I can barely hold a conversation with my own brother… and I don’t really do much other than sit in my house all day…

Anyways, I’m ranting now: What do you guys think? Does alcohol and regular partying make people looser, friendlier, and more sociable/comfortable being around other people?

Yes, alcohol can make you more relaxed, laid back and carefree. But is this you? And is it good? I think in moderation it is okay, it make give you confidence to make new friend – but make sure they are the right ones! People who take alcohol more are probably more likely to be less reliable and not serious about their future.

just be yourself u dont need alcohol.
