@canislupis if I have something like a show to go to, I try to rest up a few days prior and make sure I have enough back up medication (painkillers) to take before and during the show.  Having a drink helps a bit too.  Some venues have a disabled section with seats, which means I don't have to use stairs to get there and don't have to fight with able-bodied jerks who don't need seats but take them anyway.  Sometimes it's all a matter of forcing myself to go to have fun, though.
