Ugh. I am a kind of quiet, reserved person. I used to drink and that would help me be less shy and more outgoing, but I stopped drinking 7 months ago because I have gastritis and whenever I used to drink, my stomach burned and I even got sick once. Since my last post-drinking experience (only had 3 beers!) wasn't so great (I got sick and I have severe fear of vomiting), I vowed to not drink for a long time.

So I am going to a bachelorette party for my cousin tomorrow. All of her friends are loud, rambunctious, and some even obnoxious. Add alcohol and rowdy bachelorette themed activities and this is just going to be hell for me.

What am I supposed to do? I am dreading this so much. I am obligated to go since it's my cousin and already RSVP'd, made a big deal of only staying for 1 night instead of 2, and paid for a bed, etc etc.

I feel like I'm going to be so annoyed and a little bored the whole night. I am boring sober. I will be the only sober person. This sucks so much.

Any advice, comments, similar past experiences would be helpful :(
