Walking back, I only live a few minutes away.

Firstly, I am assuming you are legally allowed to drink. This information is not to be used to encourage underage drinkers to drink. Make sure you eat a proper meal before you go. It helps absorb some of the alcohol. Drink slowly. Try to gauge your state of mind after each half drink. Hopefully you will be able to recognise the signs and lay off before you get drunk. Space your drinks by having an equal amount of water in between, this helps you stay more in control, and also helps with hang overs as 90% of a hang over is dehydration. Make sure you trust the people you will be with (know they won't hurt you or shave your eyebrows off if you pass out). Try to make sure there is a responsible person there who will not be drinking who can stop the rest of you getting into trouble. Make sure your parents know where you are.
A good alternative, drink milk :) Much less of a hangover!

Drinking For The First Time

1. Mix the alcohol with some other beverage (juice, soda, mineral water) to make it easier to pass. 1/4 alcohol to 3/4 of anything else.
2. Don't mix more than 2 types of alcohol. Tequila+Whiskey is a big no-no for a newbie.
3. Eat lightly before or during. Don't go crazy or it'll come back to haunt you.
4. If buzzed by the end of the night, drink at least 3 glasses of water before going to bed to avoid a hang over (at least it won't be as strong the next day).
5. Sleep sideways of face down. Never sleep face up after drinking (doing so will make the world spin horribly and make you puke).
Have fun, be careful, remember moderation and good manners (remember to use the toilet and aim correctly).

Eat a big meal before you go drinking, and if you plan on getting drunk than I would have water in between drinks, maybe even eat some bread to soak up the alcohol in your stomach.
Once your face gets numb or your vison is like seeing through a fish bowl, you are drunk and should be able to stop and not get a hangover the next day. If you keep going after that though, it will suck in the morning.

Drinking alcohol is not a big deal. At least, it's not for me. The problem is that it's illegal to drink if you're under 21 in the US, and that's why many people think drinking is something bad. Actually, children should learn how to drink properly, so they can enjoy alcohol. Just eat before you start drinking and drink some fresh lemon juice (it prevents from hang over) along with your alcohol. And don't worry what happens next, you'll be alright!

Know that beer is usually about 5% alcohol while whisky tequila and spirits is about 25%. It takes less of the hard stuff to get you plastered. Drink in moderation stick with cocktails and youll be fine. Do not mix drinks as mentioned because it messes up your metabolism for absorbing alcohol and you will either end up comatose or crawling home. End plenty of food before or during such as bread, pizza etc.
Unlikely to happen but in Japan young college students have died from being pressured to drink too much by friends, indulging in dares and drinking game and end up with alcohol poisoning. . Once you get drunk your decision making faculties get reduced so best to avoid getting drunk anyway and keep your wits about you.

I hope that you are legal to drink. First make sure you are with people that you trust. Don't leave your drink unattended, someone could put something in your drink. Don't mix drinks. Start with 1 to 3 drinks, depending on size and sex, female seem to be affected quicker. Don't try to keep up with others, not everyone can drink the same amount.

I have to tell you, now is definetly the time to quit. You are too young to be treating your body like this; I commend you on kicking drugs, but this drinking has to go. You say you can't quit because it helps you with anxiety. You are in a dangerous cycle right now, because it really doesn't help. When you drink a lot, do you feel like sh!t the next day? )(Like depressed, not sick.) It's what alcoholics call "The next day blues", and what makes you drink to get over them. Bottom line- You have to just quit. Use your willpower and put the bottle down, since you know it's not good. Get a new hobby to occupy your time. If you are religious, pray. If you are creative, create. I quit drugging and drinking because I was sick of it. I have anxiety, too, and what helps me is painting. You need something to lose yourself in, in a healthy productive way. Best of luck
