Well, I'm not completely sure if I'm alone on this or others have similar experiences or not. But, I've found since quitting drinking I'm afraid/can't stand to be around people, even people I've known my whole life. I've found myself for the most part locking myself in my room completely alone and having as little contact with people as possible. The most I really deal with people is only when I have no choice or no way out. I haven't been to a Dr. to talk about this considering I don't exactly trust Dr.s and figure they'll fill my head with a bunch of b.s. and won't know half of what they're talking about.

I guess I'm wondering if there is anyone else who tends to avoid and type of social situations even if it involves people you've known for great lengths of time. I'm not sure if this is just a temporary problem that will pass if it is something that I'll have to live with and learn how to deal with. And I am starting to feel like I'm all alone with this wanting to be "anti-social" type thing. Thanks for letting me share. And any advice or info someone might have would be greatly appreciated.
