Dee74 it is not a volume comparison. It is the fact that I had control over it. For me it was psychological and the false belief that I needed it to relax. In hindsight I can't actually see what was so good about getting drunk and especially not the hangovers. I gave up cigarettes and marijuana a few years ago and wonder what I saw in it. A few weeks back out of the blue I had offer of a joint which I took, just made me feel weird and I was waiting for it to wear off.
