Drinking doesn’t seem to affect me, or that it affects me differently

There really isn’t any point in this post, just sharing and would love to hear your opinions 🙂

So I turned 18 a couple of months ago(that’s the legal age here) and have never drank (except some beer occasionally) until I was almost 18. I’m a pretty shy person, I guess that in today’s terms, it would be “extroverted with social anxiety” since I love hanging out with friends but barely do anything there and think a lot before saying anything, so I thought that perhaps alcohol would get me to open up and be a little more social.

The first time I drank was at a party, and I was certain that I’m like super sensitive so I did it carefully, but to my surprise, it had little to no effect on me, I was thinking logically, walking straight, and most importantly – I didn’t open up even a little. The second and third time, it did affect me, but differently than everyone else. I actually drank a little less, but I became tired and dizzy, and it felt like my mood was still not affected, or even that I got a little distant.

That’s it, it’s just strange that my already social friends did well and enjoyed, while I remained the same anxious person – maybe a little more tired.
