Hi Wallo! Glad to hear things went well for you. I can relate to some of what you wrote because I have intense social anxiety as well, and having a drink or two definitely helped me relax in social situations. I can see now that one of the main reasons I started drinking was social anxiety. I ran into problems after that, though. I think there's a point of no return, so to speak, when it didn't matter one bit why I started drinking because the fact was that I was an alcoholic. I'm not saying this is true for you, but it might be something to think about given what I read in your other posts.
Be well
