Autism and alcohol

Catch 22 and vicious circle in one. I sometimes drink because I feel stupid, embarrassed or alone because of my autism. I then tend to do minor things (that seem like major things) that make me feel the same way.

I'm in a WhatsApp group with NTs and my comments usually end the conversation. I feel liked enough when i see them in person, but my paranoia is starting to shoot through the roof and my decision making is being affected.

Anyone else on this level? Done with feeling stupid and embarrassed ALL THE TIME. Could really do with some advice. Thanks

    I can sympathize with this. This is why I never get involved in "banter" on Facebook ect. I even get paranoid on here that my comments end the discussion. They probably don't, sometimes it is just a question of timing maybe, coming in at the end of the discussion.
