Does alcohol make you less scared?

I've got an presentation infrond of my whole class tomorrow. I really hate it. I'm considering tanking a few shots before going to school to get rid of the fear. Would it work? What is your opinion?

Alcohol doesn’t seem like the best idea honestly, especially at school. There are alternatives like trying a relaxing tea beforehand or if you want there are even herbal supplements you can take like St. John’s wort or holy basil. And if you need to you can even pray about it. “Cast all your anxiety on Him for He cares for you.” (1 Peter 5:7). Just some tips that could be useful. Good luck on the presentation, hope you do well.

@Tellica Praying helps me a lot. If your a believer it can be very helpful so that’s why I mentioned it. Didn’t know if you were but I thought I’d give it a shot 😋

@Blessedbeyond I'm glad it works for you. I just couldn't believe in a god even if I wanted too. Did too much overthinking on that.

Aw, well if you wanna talk about feel free to message me. Ive dealt with overthinking too and it sucks! Even with my faith I use to as well but the Lord gave me reassurance. Not saying to boast, just want to let you know there’s hope
