Welcome. My drug of choice is Marijuana but I addictions to DXM, Benadryl, and alcohol as well.
It's a bad idea. All roads lead to drug of choice. You can beat around the bush with other stuff, but its only a matter of time before you go back to what you like the most. In fact, my addictions to DXM, Benadryl, and alcohol all developed because I figured I could use them socially and stay off the pot. In reality all I did was end up smoking weed again while also having to maintain more addictions at the same time. It was a disaster over and over again.
Eventually, I had stop all substances and join a program of recovery so I could live a clean and sober life and do it comfortably. Thats the best idea.
Also we have a good thread going with our experience, strength, and hope with Mariuana addiction. Check it out:
