Daily tokers - Do you drink less because of weed?

Discussion in 'Seasoned Marijuana Users' started by MellowStoner, Mar 17, 2022.

  1. My preferred drink is Vodka. I smoke almost daily and have two vodka's with a citrus green tea mixed in. Hell I throw a vicodin or tramadol in on top of it sometimes too. My doctor wants to try microdosing me with LSD but curb my depression but she can't get it approved legally. If I didn't wake up tomorrow no one would care anyway, my boys would get a fat insurance policy and inheritance so they'd be all for it.

  2. I never drank much after my 20s just due to the fact that I hated wasting half my Saturday hung over feeling bad.

    I get high and build shelves for my kids legos, clear brush, organize the basement, all while being regularly harrassed by my kids.

    I was never able to have more than 1-2 beers and be that productive.

    Now I smoke daily and have alcohol maybe 4-5 times a year when we have people over, and even then its basically just to combat dry throat from smoking.

  3. Nope. Im an alcoholic. Now in remission. Been alcohol free almost 1.5 years now. Using weed as a hobby helped me replace alcohol because I was a bit of a bourbon and tequila/mezcal snob.

  6. I tried drinking last night and I was disappointed. So then I got some joints and it mixed okay but, the high was just so much more mellow and laid back.

    I should add I was drinking with friends around a campfire and the music and the food was so much better after those tokes. The beer tasted alright tho I just don't care for the affects of alcohol anymore.

    Ugh at this point I'll drink 1 around my friends and family to kinda taste it with dinner however fuck getting drunk. It's not worth it people. Puking face down way back as a teen taught me a lesson I'll never forget in life man. :laughing:

  8. I smoke more when I drink. The two can be tied together and cause some to drink more because of it.

  10. Funny, I find that mixing weed and alcohol cancel each other out. I'd rather have one or the other. But that's just me. Everyone is different.

    Of course, if I could smuggle some good weed into my illegal state, I'd love to transition completely to cannabis.

    Tentative plan the next time I go to California is to ship some by private carrier, and carry the rest under the legal limit at LAX. The policy at LAX is to ignore it if it's within the CA legal limit (because weed is legal is CA, thus you can possess it even at the airport in your luggage).

  13. I wasn't a snob. Evan Williams Bourbon. $24.80 for a half gallon. Every 2 days. Hit 7 years dry in June. Life is actually more fun sober. I always smoked weed along with drinking, if anything it may have increased slightly not drinking. But not by all that much. My weed smoking didn't increase until I harvested my first bounty. And even then it wasn't a huge increase. But I do have to say the combination of not spending the $25 every two days in conjunction with not having to buy weed anymore made a very noticeable difference in available money. Add in vaping vs cigs, and that's $35/month total vape cost versus $15/day(2 packs) for smokes. And all that shit really added up.
