Why don't you know? They are showing some interest in you and if you still care about turning your life around go for it. For the anxiety: the sooner you realize that there's nothing to lose or to be embarrassed about, the sooner you'll be able to "function". Remember that one cliche "nothing really matters"? That's the perfect solution for social anxiety. But not for other problems.

Just play it cool, you're gonna be drinking so you'll at least get a buzz to wash away the anxiety.

I wish I was in your situation, honestly. I could drop off the face of the earth and nobody would reach out to me/notice my absence.

Just the fact that someone's thinking about you enough to reach out means you should have no reason to be anxious.

I don't know because I tend to overthink everything. I've been noticing lately I'm overthinking what to say, etc while in a conversation in person. My empathy is also very low, I am not autistic though. It's just I seem to understand how the conversation flows while in it? That'best way I can explain it.

I'll have one before I leave then. I haven't spoken to him in around a month, so there should be enough to talk about, although I'm overthinking it.

If you were in my situation at least you'd be able to take advantage of it, instead of flailing around clueless. I do think it was nice of him to reach out and it wad the last thing id expect.

Because you don't care about the person enough, obviously.

But I consider him a very good friend.

You saying that actually made me do a hypothetical situation about if he'd died. Is a wave of sadness meant to go through you or something? Because for me it just feels of acknowledging loss. I'd remember the many good times we'd shared.

Nigga, you can't simulate someone's death and expect to get honest, accurate feelings.
