I've been drinking again recently. I don't really care for it. I'm definitely more into enhancing the senses as opposed to diminishing them with alcohol. I actually enjoy the hangovers more than I enjoy being drunk. You wake up the next morning and EVERYTHING is overwhelming. It's a good feeling.

But seriously, I've got to stop with this shit soon -- I've been kind of obliviating myself recently to a degree that will probably prove disadvantageous in the future. Mushrooms especially seem to get PISSED OFF at me when I'm not taking good care of my body.
 
^Interesting what you say about hangovers; I feel like they are hell on earth. To me they are just fraught with anxiety and shaking- even of a minor amount of booze.
 
Yeah, i think the after effects of a high dose of alcohol is more debilitating than the after effects of just about anything I can think of. I absolutely hate being hung over. I always curse myself for drinking too much the night before whenever I wake up with a hangover. Feels super unhealthy, and it's never worth it just for being drunk. Get an overwheliming sense that i've just wasted time. It can definitely be easy to over indulge from time to time though.
 
I would say i trip weekly on average, and I drink probably less than once every 6 months or even a year. I am a college student in my 4th year and after exploring many mind-altering substances I've found that the (dis)advantages of weed and psychedelics far outweigh the effects of alcohol. I would never say I don't like being drunk, but i dont like the process of getting there, i dont think it provides a beneficial mindset, and i hate the after-effects, so alcohol just really doesnt seem worth it to me anymore, i stick to psychs and weed
 
If most of my friends wouldn't drink it, I wouldn't touch that stuff.
Had an unpleasent lsdtrip on friday because everyone else was drunk. :|
If you just sit there and analayse them while they are completly wasted. UGHHH :(
Once in a while it can be fun though.
 
I drink (quite excessively) daily and currently trip once or twice weekly. I enjoy both... sort of. Alcohol provides little satisfaction but it is a familiar thing to me and I tend to cling to it. I also love psyches and tend to drink moderately on most of them - sipping occasionally at a beer or the odd glass of wine stye 'o thing.

Seperately or together they can be enjoyable or terrible. Psyches win every time though, for sure :).
 
until this week, i've been drinking 3 beers or so per day.. one at lunch, 2 at dinner, like clockwork.. but.. last week i decided to cut down to 1 a day and now this week i'm done. saving em for the weekends

No, see, that's why I like em. I feel like such hell that I don't have the energy to feel anxiety. Thinker/responder consciousness just basically goes "fuck this, I'm outta here"
 
Gotta have my mezcal a few times a year. With tobala @ $125/bottle and pechuga @ $200, it's a damn good thing too, that it's so infrequent... =D
 
Alcohol is one of the worst drugs i tried.I drink almost on every party,but usually it is just beer or two.I drink hard alcohol one or two times in year,never too much.I will never drink more than one beer while tripping.
 
^^

I think alcohol is great if used in moderation . I like to drink only when my trip starts taking me to a place thats causing me anxiety . Lately iv been drinking only beer when im tripping or not . I dont think id drink hard alcohol while tripping cuz i would end up drinking to much and id ruin the high .
 
I haven't had a brutal hangover in nearly 20 years. I just don't drink enough for it to happen.

Max: 3 glasses of Glenfiddich scotch (one shot each) on ice OR two glasses of white zinfandel.

When I had 'em, hangovers would last ALL DAY. What a terrible fucking ordeal. But in my case, they worked - I never overdrink anymore.

Hmm, I might have to see if I can 'enjoy' this hangover thing...it goes alright if you ave a ton of valium or opiates and pot to fry your face off with I feel; that is- a hanover, not actual drinking. Alchohol and xanax makes me slice things 8):D
 
I used to like alcohol, but I mostly lost interest halfway through my first year of college. Now I drink maybe every couple of weeks and usually not very much. I find the effects rather non-interesting and my body seems to not like alcohol anymore, I get stomachaches if I drink too fast. At least I don't seem to get hangovers.

Blazing just always seems more appealing.

Actually it came full circle as this morning my hangover was anything but pleasant. It put me in a very hateful mood actually. Thene again last night did revolve around mutiny of the senses and purging negative energy through shared hateful rhetoric. It's been a strange culmination this fall.

It's time to do something crazy. I think I'm gonna escape to the desert for a few days.
 
sometimes I steal portions of ticky-tack holding up posters in public buildings. its a nice matter to fiddle with.....
