Tonight I have a Christmas party that I have to attend for work reasons, and I am dreading it. For a start, it is late in the day/evening, and I get increasingly tired and irritable in the evening; this is not helped by the fact it is now so dark, and my anxiety goes through the roof.
I hate parties: they are loud, hot, with people everywhere, and no structure. I know I can escape to the toilets if it gets too much, but I still feel very uneasy. And then, when it is over, I will have to travel home feeling close to nervous collapse.
Not really sure what I want out of this post, perhaps I just want to get this off my chest. Am I alone in hating parties?
