New Year's Eve Party...

So... I've never been to a party on New Year's Eve. Been invited many times, but I always declined and would always end up spending the night at home with my family. Of course, there's nothing wrong with that... I love spending time with my family. However, when I think about it, the reason why I've been declining invitations to these parties is because of my social anxiety.

A friend of mine invited me recently to go to a party and she will be the only person that I know on that party. There will be appx 20 people total. While my default answer was "Thanks, but I'll pass", I've been thinking that I should accept and go... just go face my anxiety. I don't feel like going as I will be very anxious. I don't drink alcohol, so I won't be able to "relax" totally, which makes it even worse.

Any suggestions? Tips? Should I go?
