How do you calm yourself without alcohol or drugs?!
Question: How do you calm yourself without alcohol or drugs.?
Answers:
Everybody finds their own way - but it's real important never to depend upon booze or drugs to do anything for you. Get good and drunk and have some fun - but never let booze solve your anxiety or depression problems!!! That's where you get the huge and tragic dependencies you hear about.
There's meditation - finding some friends - talk to religious types if you have a religion - anything. Most important is "reality check" - that means sitting with friends and having coffee - being with somebody else. Alone you get all wrapped up in your stuff. But when you can get together with some friends, you will 'see yourself through their eyes' - that can be extremely beneficial and calming.
Probably - emotionally - we weren't meant to spend all our time alone. We need nice, uncomplicated friends too.
