Im somewhat convinced in the future that people will look back on us at this time in disbelief and amazement. Like how we imbibe, the availability of alcohol, bars clubs etc.
In the future if you want to drink you'll have to pass a background check and can only drink under medical supervision in a padded room while wearing a helmet.

This materialist world has the shittiest drugs legally available 
Good thing is breaking the veil with cannabis, but alcohol and nicotine, especially your neighbor's brand of fags are absolute dogshit.

I agree that is it absurd, and I also have a slight drinking problem. I don't drink every day, and I don't even really drink super heavily (craft beer mostly), but I do get drunk and when that happens I REALLY struggle with stopping. If I can't control myself, hangovers can become literally nightmarish for me. I rarely feel as depressed and horrible about myself as I do with a bad hangover.
I REALLY wish I could get a handle on my drinking and be able to just imbibe moderatley on occasion but part of me also just wants to give it up completely because of how absurd it really is. I know it doesn't contribute to my health or wellness in any way and yet time and time again I come back to it.
It doesn't really help that essentially all of my friends and family drink, but I have always tried to hold myself to a high standard in terms of individuality. It seems like my herd mentality is most susceptible when alcohol is involved. I don't really know what to do. Maybe It's stupid, but if I could just have a couple pints and stop I would feel much better about myself than just quitting cold turkey and feeling defeated by my own body and mind.
Why can't there just be psychedelic dispensaries and exploratory consciousness bars? I am so tired of prohibition.

If you want to stop drinking you've got to find the willpower to stop expecting to drink.
That's how I've gone without tobacco for well over a month.

Mate, I'm totally with you on this - wishing I could just have a couple but the mere taste on my tongue of a great beer or fine wine and I'm swallowing it like the world is running out! Add in a friend or two with the same tendencies and before I know it I'm dancing on the podiums throwing out big shapes with the loaf of bread and pint of milk I came out for still sitting in the corner at 2:30 in the morning! Then with the shittiest of hangovers always comes the obligatory 'I'll never drink again' drivel, utterly and entirely believed on the day but soon forgotten a week later and so the wheel keeps on revolving... I think (for me anyway) it's either all or nothing.
