I’d get used to how you feel on it before trying it though. You have to find the right balance. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3828179&forum_id=2#34913405) |

Date: December 13th, 2017 9:43 PM Author: Carnelian Half-breed Yeah few nips of Scotch and some Adderall too.
Presentation went great and I was killing it. Partners and the board were fired up. Then I got a bit overconfident/full of myself saying "We're going to make [competitor] our little bitch. Fuck them right up their asses." One partner laughed uncomfortably while the only female partner in the room stared daggers into my soul. The rest just stood silent. I doubled down and went after one of the guy partners who looked pissed and started mock humping him in the middle of the board room.
Did not go over well.
Got called into an HR meeting and told them I had anxiety issues giving the big board meeting presentation and took the Xanax because my shrink advised it. Showed them all the doctors records etc. I just had to apologize and wasn't a big deal, but this was in 2012. In 2018 probably would be fired immediately. |

Date: December 13th, 2017 10:12 PM Author: autistic walnut halford yeah, that's the other problem, i don't remember half of what i said. but little snippets of cringworthy comments will still come back to me the next day. i can't imagine how retarded the rest of the shit was, that i forgot. i don't want to know. |

Date: December 13th, 2017 10:14 PM Author: Carnelian Half-breed yeah the only time I take that or sleeping pills is when I'm alone. feels good to just obliterate an entire day/night but it's so risky being around anyone in that state.
it's like fucking Elaine on Seinfeld when she drinks Schnapps and tells all. |

Date: December 14th, 2017 1:47 AM Author: fragrant coldplay fan sandwich i've given some great presentations to high-level people while having a slight buzz.
granted, it was largely medicinal (trying to fight off rebound anxiety from a hangover caused from the night before that would leave me shaky).
but the reduction in inhibitions can be helpful. you just have to be real careful with dosing. |

Who cares. Ljl at making yourself into a drug addict to give a presentation. If you're nervous just go ahead and fail, jfc, it's not a big deal. |
