Antisocial. Ok doing nothing.
A little backstory. I believe I’ve always had anxiety from a young age. I didn’t have a supportive family and was made to feel like a problem. I discovered alcohol in high school and immediately took to it. I became a heavy drinker into my mid 20’s. Gave up drinking 9 years ago and I realized that I had been masking my anxiety with alcohol. Obviously once I quit drinking my anxiety came back in full force. I “dealt” with it by focusing all my energy on my career. Tbh, I haven’t had a lot of friends since high school. And through getting off alcohol, I stopped hanging out with my friends who drank. I find myself in my mid 30’s pretty ok not having friends. I’m wondering if my being ok with it is the Lexapro. I workout, go to work, come home and don’t want to go back out. I’m happily married but I’m afraid I will start to bore my husband over time. Sometimes I feel guilt for not wanting more of a life outside my career, I feel so lame honestly. Has anyone else dealt with this? Any tips? Did adding in Wellbutrin help? I know people say it takes time to make friends but it’s been 9 years..
