I was a pretty regular drinker in my 20's but my consumption decreased in my 30's, especially after I had kids. I couldn't deal with a hangover while trying to parent so I really pick my spots to get drunk. Even having 3-4 drinks in a night will leave me feeling a bit off the next day. Nowadays, if I get drunk 5 times in a year, that was a big year consumption-wise.
Most of my drinking now is done socially and with Covid, that has pretty much stopped. I usually keep beer in the fridge during the summertime and will drink that by myself as I love it after yardwork or while BBQing. My wife doesn't really drink and when she does, it's usually wine which is not my thing.
I am a pretty heavy weed smoker and have smoked daily for almost 20 years. Usually it's in the evening but on the weekends I'll have a buzz on for most of the day. I found with Covid that my daytime consumption has gone up simply because of boredom. I've also been eating edibles more often now that regulated dosages actually exist.
I did mushrooms over the summer for the first time in 15 years and it was fantastic. I will definitely do some again if I can get my hands on them.
