    Not to be a maoist but alcohol is bad and you shouldn’t drink it. Weed is fine. It’s nice. No one ever drowns in their own blood from weed. Alcohol though I have seen a few

      I used to love weed, but now it gives me anxiety/panic attacks. Alcohol is pretty much the only drug I can enjoy anymore. Unfortunately for me, I’ve gone a little overboard at some parties lately. Nothing that has impacted my life, but enough that I feel like I took it too far. I don’t want to be straight-edge :(

        If it has to be a depressant drug then you are in a rough spot. Alcohol is just so very convient. I don’t actually like weed myself, it just doesn’t suit my temperament. I have had good experiences with a medium dose of mushrooms. Not enough to get proper high but a little bit less will get you drunk. More than microdosing. It is a dumb plan I can’t in good conscious recommend to anyone though.

          Thanks anyway. I did a bunch of acid and shrooms in my teens/early 20s. I can’t handle psychedelics anymore either. I have toyed around a little with microdosing and minidosing shrooms in the past few years, but it’s been a mixed experience. I really quite enjoy opiates, but obtaining them is a hassle plus nobody believes you when you say you enjoy them casually lol. One day I’ll grow my own poppies and keep a quart of laudanum on hand.

            Hell yeah, classic opium style. I had a buddy that got some real opium one time. It was super chill in ways that don’t hold up historically. I can see that
