Not really, you need a coping mechanism with all the crap and stupidity across society, and how powerless truth and correct moral behavior can be.

Alcohol is one of the worst ones, you just blunt yourself while still realizing all failures, just temporarily a bit downtuned, next morning back to misery. No solution or even improvement is happening, just basically giving up (or a bit of complaining which is just group psychological therapy).

Sports, meditation, maybe even occasional psychedelics steered in right direction, active vacations, good food, good sleep. Life is much easier in such mode.



So you are saying “psychedelics good coping mechanism, alcohol bad”?

That is California sobriety at a level I’ve never seen before.
