My good friend is also a big drinker, probably gets drunk at least 5 days per week. The thing I notice is that he just repeats the same stories over and over again. It's like I have heard the same 20 stories 100 times. It's always the same story of glorifying his drug abuse in his younger years, like it's some great accomplishment or something. I don't know where his hardcore drinking is going to bring him, so far he has gotten away with a lot in my opinion. He's 51 and has been drinking hard for 35 years now, it's amazing it hasn't destroyed his body at this point.

I feel for anyone who can’t drink, I really enjoy the stuff, but shit stay away if you can’t hang. Smoking weed makes me a paranoid psychopath, and you couldn’t pay me $10,000 to get high again. I’ve learned it’s just ok that some things aren’t for some people.

I used to be a full fledged alcoholic. Probably for a good 10 years. I was a pretty harmless, functioning alcoholic, but an alcoholic nonetheless. Drank literally...Every. Single. Day.

But in the last couple of years I've gotten down to 3-4 times a month. The rest of the month I stay alcohol free.

And like you I'm just not cut out for smoking weed anymore. I too get paranoid and it just doesn't make me feel good anymore. The shit is so fucking potent these days that it makes my heart race




I still got some weed in the closet on standby but I am never in the mood anymore. Last time I took a hit off my friend's weed, it fuckin curb stomped me. One fucking hit. Granted we had been drinking all day but before that hit I was fine. After I was fuckin dead, man. Like within half an hour I was completely out of commission and laid down and went to bed. Because I couldn't even think anymore. It felt like I took an uppercut from Mike Tyson. It was horrible, lol.
