I drink quite a bit, average 25-35 beers a week. I never get drunk though, I like sipping, getting a decent buzz, and keeping it. I get actually drunk maybe twice a year, not worth the hangover.

I find drugs and alcohol just increase whatever emotion I already have, and I'm a pretty happy guy, so that works out. But the biggest thing for me is I do not drink when I'm sad. I learned that lesson the hard way when I lost my son. Same way it makes me feel better when I'm happy, it makes me feel crappier when I'm not.

As for drugs, before it was legal I smoked weed maybe twice. Now I'll have a little bit here and there but overall it's never been my thing
