Unfortunately, for me the cure for social anxiety was drugs and alcohol. I recently went to rehab for the first time, and I have 4 months of sobriety...my longest stretch of sobriety in my adult life (I'm 41). Being social and sober is a challenge for me. On the plus side 12 step programs are an awesome way to meet sober, caring individuals. The therapy and classes I took in rehab were absolutely life changing. Healthy relationships...what are those? Boundaries? Never heard of em! I've had to learn intellectually what some people are fortunate enough to intuit.
