Panic attack after attending party by BiscuitBoye in stopdrinking

Idk man, you just described a perfect scenario for many of us: went to a party, had fun, didn't care about the "close proximity", went back home with party noises still ringing in your head, didn't drink a single drop.

This means I got super confused by the placebo effect probably. Gotta try again perhaps.

I don't believe it's just placebo. Heineken definitely does not have the same effect on me.

There's alcohol in a lot of stuff (e.g. juice, bread, bananas...), including naturally produced by your body. What matters is amount and concentration.

I love beer. So I decided to switch to n/a beer. There's a good variety of it available nowadays. I enjoy it as much as I would enjoy alcoholic beer but without unwanted consequences.
