 I've had some fun trips with booze, and I've let it get the best of me a handful of times.  Overall I'm not sure how to feel about alcohol.

 When I dropped acid for the first time at age 27 it made me horrified at the effects of alcohol on my body and I had a difficult time stomaching alcohol for a year after that. My tolerance and enjoyment of alcohol slowly came back but I never fully went back to heavy drinking. I drink sometimes.

 That sounds fairly healthy. It is sad to see older people binging and letting alcohol control them.

 I don't understand how people drink heavily for so long, especially later in life.

 It’s a very weird substance. I do not drink like used to as a young man and overall do not drink most days. But god damn has alcohol fueled peaks and valleys in my life.
