Fear of Cups, Glasses and Bottles
-
13-04-2012 10:32pm#1I have a really bad fear of drinking from cups, glasses and bottles and it is partly destroying my life. (It has caused me to quit 2 good jobs
).
It all started in 2006! I was working in a restaurant and was working away as you do, pooring wine (as I had done for years) for a couple at a table when the man said to me something along the lines of "why are you shaking? and the couple kind of laughed at me I remember. I had NEVER noticed this before. I cant remember why but this was the year I started to drink and to this day I put it down to must have been out the night before and had a case of the shakes!
But ever since that bloody couple commented about my hand shaking as I poured them there wine my life has turned upside down:(
As you can imagine I became extreamly self conscious and I am very depressed over it.
I always carry with a small secret bottle of brandy incase I get into a situation where I know I will be offered a drink. I take that shot of brandy and that seems to steady me up.
Now, I checked with doc, I dont have a tremor because if i dont leave the house im fine for a year! but when i go to a freinds house or a pub etc I have to be drunk!
Can anyone help me?
I feel so bad cause my fear is so stupid. I wish I NEVER served those people that night.
There is an old Roman and Greek saying which I believe to be true ;
"To utter a curse verbally was so powerfull, because to say the thing out loud brought it into existance"0
