I'm off to a New Years eve party at the other halfs brothers house soon, I don't really know or get on with these people due to my social anxiety, But I'm a bit affraid of the hole thing to be honest. Any tips?? I'm scared mainly of having a panic attack in the midst of the whole thing.

Try to chat to people to keep your mind busy.

Don't drink too much - keep the water handy!

Get involved with whatever they are doing

Have fun!!!

Happy New Year!

Just remember it's your choice to be there and it can be your choice how long you stay - this makes you feel more in control!

Don't go too mad on the drink as it can make you feel rough the next day (like none of know that [Duh!])!!!

Have a lovely time!:)

Have to say I went and had a really good night. Thats always the way with anxiety, U dread going these places and when ever you get there its actually no where near as bad as you though it would be

Too right! It's always the anticipation that's worse than the doing :D

Glad you enjoyed yourself!
