Why are you feeling anxious? Bowling is a fun, relaxing sport. You're going with friends, so you can feel comfortable. It doesn't have to be competitive, just fun. Try to figure out where the anxiety comes from. Do you feel you have to win? Do you feel you'll be judged for some reason? Try to understand, they are just as accepting of you as you are of them. And a game doesn't have to be won. If you have fun playing, that's winning.

Anxiety over bowling, are you serious, have a beer or two and have fun, have three and have a blast. Good luck and keep the ball in your lane.

Breath deeply. Don't get all caught up in your score or how well your form is. If you don't know how to bowl, everyone will know the first time you roll the ball. Just have fun with it. ALOT of people can't bowl but they have fun just the same. OR
DRINK HEAVILY!!

You do know that, aside from the single super hot shot, all your other colleauges are feeling the same level of anxiety as you, right? Just have fun and don't treat it as some form of competition.

Take laxatives, if not, try finding something else to concentrate on instead of your anxiety. Thinking about it will merely increase it. Take a deep breath and hope for the best. Blesss you

So your a little "uptight" about your bowling skills or your personality not being well received by your co-workers, it's called social insecurity. Dump it be yourself, don't be afraid to "Goof" or come short of others expectations of you. As the song says 'don't worry be happy'.
