of course its a coping mechanism :dahell: but you can argue anything is a coping mechanism

sex is a coping mechanism

going to the gym is a coping mechanism

binging netflix shows is a coping mechanism

:beli:
Exactly....there are tons of coping mechanisms and habits....like shopping and having to have the newest clothes and accessories, traveling, going out to eat, going to clubs/bars, gambling, amusement parks and other entertainment that cost money, etc. I don't understand why people think drinking, cigs and substances are the only habits and coping mechanisms that people have that are costly and can yield negative results.

I don't do either because I don't care to. Besides I have a neighbor who smokes weed every single night under my window, which I don't appreciate. When he drinks, he gets louder (gets into fights sometimes and cries loudly afterwards). He's always done this, but it's gotten worse since his dad died a few years back.

I drink but I don't do drugs.

If you do drugs don't do it around me don't even tell me you have it.

I'm not going to knock anyone who doesn't drink or smoke weed but I hate dudes who are straight edge surgeon general a$$holes about it.

Drinking and smoking ain't for everybody, breh. Be glad that you can do it without having any immediate health effects like some cats I know. I know a dude can't drink cause of liver cirrhosis and I know a few cats who can't smoke anymore 'cause it started to flare up dormant mental health issues. In essence nobody should be doing this shyt and a part of me wishes I never liked it so I wouldn't too, but I'm very diligent with doing the shyt in moderation and at controlled doses I can handle.

Because as a black person im trying to live longer and look younger when I get older, unlike u white dudes and chicks who be looking 62 at 32

Smoking and drinking for a black man take decades off your life and I should know because I lost family members and friends to it in their 30s and 40s

Personally I like to drink on weekends but not to get fuked up....I like to drink socially to get a nice buzz. I also do enjoy wine over beer and liquor. I like beer and liquor but beer makes me feel bloated and can make my stomach protrude out...which is unattractive for anybody. That bloated feeling...depending on what beer Im consuming and what I ate is very uncomfortable. Then as far as liquor...I enjoy mixed drinks and shots every now and then but sometimes liquor doesn't taste good or go down well when I drink it straight. However, I had crown and henny straight on rocks before and it was fine sippin it. But some drink just to get drunk and that isn't for me. I feel as grown ups, especially when we pass college age...we need to be able to hold our liquor. What if we need to drive or what if an unfavorable situation arises that requires u to make a decision and take action? You can't always trust others and that includes ur friends and family. A man (woman as well) need to remain cognizant at all times...but still should be able to get turnt at times...just not too turnt.

It also is a good way to connect and relax with your bae if yall have a couple of drinks or do whatever...just don't overdo it.

What gets me are the judgmental folks who look down on those who choose to drink or smoke. Some folks may have a stressful job or have undesirable circumstances or mishaps that occur in their lives. Yes they shouldn't have to use a coping mechanism or an outlet...but sometimes a person needs to unwind and that's understandable...just don't let ur habits, no matter what they are, take over ur life.
