Perhaps you are not understanding my question i am not talking about the harm i am talking about what exactly attracts people towards it.
Why people are inclined towards it, when they are happy or sad like how it helps?

And sometimes consumption of any narcotics may be due to weak social support system, peer pressure (even in adults) and low self esteem due to which one can use it as a clutch and escape reality by clouding their consciousness and ability to make sound decisions.
Then when life hits you like a brick in the face with all the decisions you have been neglecting to take, you consume it more and more till it becomes an addiction

Worst part is… You wake up in the morning feeling Soo bad about your self… You wake up either hungover and smell like shit and more problems cause you used up all the cash you had… Now you have nothing to eat, your head is knocking but you can’t stop because in 24hrs every hour/minute/second is Soo miserable that you’d do anything to put the pain aside for few hours to just be happy or get some sleep…

The worst part is for me is i dont drink i am 26 never did, never got that appeal and when i am with friends i feel a lill left out.
When they plan parties or trips i am the odd one out ( according to them I don’t know how to enjoy life because i dont drink)

And even when its comes to dating πŸ˜‚ even girls are like dude you boring i am like why can’t we do anything else there must be more to things then this

If you drink for fun it’s okay… But honestly speaking… I wish I never tasted alcohol in the first place it’s ruining my life… And I am trying to stop but it’s Soo hard … My hands shake Everytime I think about it… I had to drink daily… From morning till evening so that my hands would stop shakingπŸ˜‚

I also sometimes think similarly. Like if there are problems, one should deal with it and not escape using alcohol.

Maybe we all have our ways to escape, music, sports games anything. There is a grey part which is hard to understand for me i would like to enjoy the good moments without alcohol atleast I’ll remember what exactly happened next day. When i am lost in pain i want to feel it and work through it making myself numb is ain’t gonna help not going to learn anything from the experience.

Change your circle of friends… Cause when you start chilling with thieves you’ll end up being one… Because if you’re brave enough to look into reality and ask your wounds important questions, why ball with alcoholics/druggies? Save yourself man. Addictions are bad news… you do not wanna go there famπŸ˜‚

I know that but there are many people who have not touched alcohol in their life and still deal with their life very well. So I like to believe that alcohol should not be a way of escapism. πŸ™‚

alcoholism can be a form of genetic problem as well. Children of people involved in any sort of narcotics may have that gene which will not allow their neurotransmitters to degenerate which will further force them to drink or consume any other drug more and more to get that same high. Yet again there is a solution to every situation. Distance yourself from it, become strong willed, ask for help whenever required, purge out your feelings (by journaling not via drinking) seek therapy, and increase your self esteem
