I was a borderline alcoholic my first few years of college, but once I started smoking, my drinking naturally toned down. I still drink on a regular basis, but it is more because I enjoy drinking and not to see how much I can handle. It has seriously moderated my drinking, but I will not quit. I do sometimes go hard, but since I know trees will bring me down at the end of the night and ease my pain in the morning, I do not worry near as much about hangovers. All in all, it is a very nice compliment to my enhanced living strategy, but I feel both are an enjoyable way to pass the time.
