I've never even drank. I don't intend to partake, because I have a grab bag of mental disorders that not only leave me barely functional at my best times, but also carry a high risk of developing substance abuse. Any potential relief I may feel from drugs or alcohol wouldn't be worth what comes after the buzz. My only exception may be psychedelics, since I've read they're not addictive and may even be helpful.
I've heard that aswell. I believe everything can be addictive but the chance of getting addicted is supposedly very slim.
I used to smoke weed to make "friends" that's until I had an onset of schizophrenia. Turns out it weed can trigger it, plus I have family with it. I worry about weed being normalized by young people. Sure it's safer than alcohol but alcohol can't hinder brain development on people younger than 25 and literally drive you crazy. Just saying weed is not as safe as most people think
Can you go more into that if u don't mind ? I'd really like to hear about that

How did your schizophrenia onset and how did u notice ?
"Are you sure it's schizophrenia and not "just substance induced psychosis / HPPD ?"

I'd really like to hear your story !
