Does anyone else experience anxiety around concerts, or other events that means a lot of drunk / drugged people? I used to go to them all the time in my early / mid twenties but I’ve begun to enjoy them less and less. While i love music, the crowd and unpredictable energy the people in it give off it it just drains me. 


I’m supposed to go to a concert tonight for a band i actually like and bought the tickets months ago. I’m starting to get anxiety and it’s slowly building the closer i get to the time of the concert. I want to not go and stay home on the couch which is my comfort zone. But every time i bail on plans and stay home because of my anxiety i get depressed and lonely.  It’s like a vicious cycle and i don’t know that to do
