When people can't find comfort in their own skin, they turn to substance. I've lost a lot of my friends to alcohol, etc. Early 20's, mid 20's, even early 30's is the time when others are looking for a way to discover themselves - when their minds aren't made up it leads to discomfort. When you feel uncomfortable substance is like a dream come true. That's my empathetic point of view. On the other hand, I know what you're talking about. I used to be the guy hanging from chandeleirs at parties. Really man, it comes down to insecurities. When people can’t find comfort in their own skin, they turn to substance.

Porter: Marry, sir, nose-painting, sleep, and urine. Lechery, sir, it provokes, and unprovokes; it provokes the desire, but it takes away the performance: therefore, much drink may be said to be an equivocator with lechery: it makes him, and it mars him; it sets him on, and it takes him off; it persuades him, and disheartens him; makes him stand to, and not stand to; in conclusion, equivocates him in a sleep, and, giving him the lie, leaves him.

But hey, I find it's great to have a few drinks on the ocassional weekend after a stressful week to get things out your system. Most of the funniest, memorable moments with my closest friends are when we have been drinking and acting silly. Everything in moderation. Drinking rarely gets you any further in life.

You lose the ambition to go out and meet people, instead you just sit around laughing at all the drunks behaving badly. And since you can't do it in public places, it gives you an excuse to stay home. At least going out for a drink gets you out of the house and in places where you are going to meet people, even if they are acting like a bunch of a-holes. IMO the only reason pot did not come off prohibition of the 1920's is because it's not nearly as addictive. Alcohol and tobacco are by far the most addictive drugs available, making them more popular and giving them more public support.

Your starting to get abriviation happy that you love so much. lol. (CTN). But so very true, can't tell you how many times i used to do this. Chased the night loaded on alchohol. Looking back it was so Dumb now rather than just enjoying the moment for what it was. Ah oh David! Your starting to get abriviation happy that you love so much. lol. (CTN).
