Sober New Years Eve Party

I am going to a sober New Years Eve Party tonight and I am nervous. How do you get rid of the anxiety, I mean its with like 150 people from the meetings in my area and I know some of them so why be so nervous? I am not nervous to go to meetings anymore? lol Does anybody have any suggestions or like conversation starters so that I wont be socially awkward?

Hey Britney - hope you have fun! Everyone will be feeling the same way as you. It's always fun to ask people about their plans for 2013, or what their favourite part of 2012 was.

Relax and enjoy yourself. This is part of learning how to do everything over again, sober. You'll have a great time, bring your sense of humor and your dancing shoes.

Happy New Year!

It went well. At first I was nervous but when I saw some people I knew and sat down I started to feel comfortable. The whole night they kept telling me that by next year they are going to get me out of my shell lol. But thank you for all your help!

Carry a flower basket along with you. It will surely work. Have tried this on mothers day for my mom. Well, I attended a function in old age home where all ladies were there. Ordered different flower online from BloomThat Mothers Day Flowers services. Greeted each lady with a flower and they were happy with this special treatment!
