Can't argue with that logic. That's what all the temperance people back in the day could never understand. Drinking wasn't the problem, dealing with existence in industrial society was.

shit alcohol killed my family. lost everyone from car accidents homicides suicides cirrhosis hypothermic death.. all the fighting all the drama & bullshit was due to alcoholism. i quit drinking 9 years ago cause i was headed down the same road as them & all it took for me was a trip to the hospital when i got alcohol poisoning at 21. after that i stayed sober. im 30 now. im pretty proud i could say that im sober. i hope everyone struggling with any addiction can overcome & liberate themselves from this disease. before its too late.

amen, the alcohol eventually turned on Bukowski, made him sick & he quit before it killed him, & then he died. I quit 3 + yrs ago, it was taking good life energy & leaving dread doom & gloom in its place, I don't wanna go out like that.

Problem is - alcohol borrows from your future wellbeing. After a while of heavy drinking, your baseline is depression and anxiety, and you drink just to alleviate those symptoms and feel somewhat normal.

@@mongee3614 As a former heavy stoner (and occasional drinker), I noticed the people who drank but didn't really smoke weed seemed to keep their human normal social selves. Whereas, as pointed out in the video, weed definitely seems to cause a spiritual disconnect. Stoners tend to go in their own bubble and become somewhat detached from normal life. Seen otherwise normal people turn into different and almost unrecognisable characters from it. That was basically the case for me. Drinkers might suffer with hangovers and be worse for wear the next day, but it´s like they don't altogether lose themselves or their minds. Although unhealthy, it´s still better to be among the public at a bar or something than hiding away with other stoners.

I personally don't think alcohol is really that big an issue if a person can keep it in moderation, but yeah, seems Bukowski was totally in denial about his alcoholism, though he was a severely traumatized person, so it makes sense... Honestly it's amazing he was able to go on drinking for as long as he did. He must have been super fortunate genetically, at least regarding that aspect of himself, veteran drunk that he was.

This basically happened to me. I became a born-again Christian during covid when I smoked weed almost every day. I went into a period of mania for a few months, where though I was definitely part crazy, many of the experiences with the Holy Spirit were genuine. The problem is weed lowers spiritual defences, meaning that evil spirits enter much more readily. Like me, your girlfriend would've been having genuine holy experiences but combined with demonic experiences (causing the craziness). I quit smoking altogether soon after and am still as devout of a believer 4 years later.

Charles discovered alcohol at 16. For him it was like finding relief from his existence and tension. It worked for him. At 35 he was in the hospital corridor vomiting blood. Like many others, he was waiting for death... Thanks to the taxes paid by his father he was entitled to transfusions and so he came out of it... Some of Buk's acquaintances and his loved ones died... He had a hard temper, and in the end he wasn't even died of alcoholism.. One important thing to say about Buk. He always wrote even when he was drinking and for him it was a way to endure life and a shitty world and be able to make the words flow, he almost never used alcohol to numb himself.. He grew up during the depression of 29.. And his father often hit him with the strop to sharpen the razor. Every person has their own life. He was lucky and it was for everyone who found: love, irony and sincerity in his writing, and also a friend as a companion during sleepless nights!

​@@luckyluc6654Nailed it! I love booze and weed. In fact, I need to go back to throwing in some weed. Nevertheless, Charles is right in this interview in a lot of ways. Even though Ace Frehley of Kiss stopped drinking, he had a classic comment about his teeth totaling bandmates and control freaks, Paul and Gene, that went, "NEVER TRUST A MAN WHO DOESN'T DRINK!" (Even in my two or three year stints of abstinence from alcohol, I'd rather hang around a drinker than some damn teetotaler tiptoeing around society)

Everyone has their preferences, and I just trust people. The truth is, everyone is trying to be their best, most productive selves. Really. And they know themselves the best. So let people do what they want. And likewise, always judge them equally, too. A person shouldn't have the excuse "I was drunk" or "I was high". No, that's them. But on a personal level, yeah, I hate pot. And I'm also very suspicious of caffeine. But it's all because it just personally dimishes me. I just really think that I can't think as well on it, and thinking is my only value, my lifeblood. One more note - I was really freakin tired of ruining my health with alcohol, so I got medication. Gabapentin. I seriously can't believe that I don't crave alcohol all the time now. Thank god for it. I eat a lot, and sleep a lot, but at least I'm not friggin drinking. I had to learn personally the effects of drinking constantly. It will rot your teeth out, and ruin your bowels. I got blisters on my tongue from constantly drinking. Man, it's a miracle I survived. I also smoke occasionally now too.

Marijuana basically amplifies your intention, so it will do what you want in your processing, if you want to just be numb it will do that, if you want to connect more it will definitely do that, emotional processing as well, when you take THC what is actually happening is your brain is utilizing different areas within itself than it would usually, enhancing creative thought, and new perspectives

I'm not advocating either way. But a major study was done and they concluded that pot ages the brain faster than booze. I smoked a lot of pot in my youth and now drink pretty regularly. Based on hangovers I think booze is harder on the body and brain than pot. But when I was a stoner, I did know that I was in a haze. A nice haze, but in a haze.

Bukowski, though a famous drinker, went on to discover in his old age that he was capable of writing just as well sober as on the bottle, and he explicitly stated that he regretted not learning this fact sooner. Furthermore, and more to your point, some corners of his work reference instances of him smoking reefer, usually with underwhelming results, but once in a blue moon he gave it something tantamount to weak approval. I think he did incorporate it more routinely during a few short phases of his life, but it never did for him what alcohol did.
