This is not the brightest idea I’ve ever heard regarding quitting or even substituting one habit for another for harm reduction. The cocaine is such a different substance, so expensive most places and setups, and actually something which blends amazingly with nothing else but a drink that this is foolish to me.
I can actually stand by @negrogesic on his story regarding methamphetamine and cutting back / quitting drinking. There was a point in my meth habit where I started drinking significantly less and for a time not at all because it didn’t jive with my meth use. Just didn’t feel the need.
Eventually the alcohol bug caught up with me anyway, and even my meth habit didn’t stop me drinking. I just developed multiple habits. This combo meth and booze (and at one post plus cocaine too) habit was a doozy and actually occurred around the time I became active on Bluelight in 2020. It continued for awhile.
Nothing will stop you drinking except you. You can stop drinking without coke. It’s actually a dangerously foolish venture, no minced words.
If you are physically dependent and feel at risk of a harsh detox experience I’d be looking into withdrawal management units wherever you are. Or at least, a hospital visit or appt with your family physician. Alcohol dependence can become dangerous even, and especially in withdrawal past a point.
Keep it real and keep your motivations in check. Hard drugs or hard drugs sounds like a pretty destructive set of options to me. It’s taken me years to get this myself. Take a look at the set of responses you’ve got here and smell the roses. This isn’t wise.
