What can i do instead of drinking beer and smoking weed when i'm socializing with friends who are?

Question

Ok, when i dont want to drink, i smoke, and when i dont fancy a smoke, i just drink. But now i'm getting pretty tired of them both and would like to be more drug-free and less intoxicated.

I've heard of straight-edgers who get by by drinking energy drink which gets them buzzing because of the caffine but i think i have a much higher tolerance to caffine right now. Any other alternatives which are less damaging than alcohol, tobacco and pot?

Answer 1

You don't have to be "buzzed" to have a good time.  Just drink water or soda pop and skip the smoking.  Just socialize and have a good time.

Answer 2

Once I quit doing drugs and drinking, I stopped hanging out with those friends since thats all they ever wanted to do.

Answer 3

Hang with people who don't drink and do drugs.  It's as simple, and, as difficult as that.

Answer 4

ya finding new friends who are more mature and have actual interests

Answer 5

Find something that will help free up your mind.  For instance some people play golf, basketball, or anything.  By doing this it helps free your mind of your normal habits.  You will find that it is much easier to occupy your mind from that stuff.  Also i recommend getting some new friends that are not interest in that stuff.  You do not allways have to drink or do drugs to have fun.  Plus the so called "being cool status" of doing that stuff is over rated.  You may be cool in your so called "group of friends"  but other people will not like you as much.

Good Luck at kicking the habit.

Answer 6

Drink some Red Bull and if you really wanna get away from all the usage, find new friends who arent into it, that way you wont succumb to peer pressure.

Answer 7

There is no hope for you so i personally, would just kill myself, actually i guess try some herion and MAKE sure you have a dirty syringe they give you a better feeling, and dont listen to all those people who say it gives you AIDS, or HIV there mentally retarded... i say who cares? i think having AIDS would be fun... Who are you going to trust? mentally retarded people, or non retarded people... i think its a pretty simple answer.. unless your a r****d, and if thats the case then PLEASE just kill yourself, because thats contageous if a r****d spits in your eye RETARDS=ZOMBIES and who likes zombies?  i call for the EXTERMINATION OF ALL RETARDS AND ASIANS (to many asians in my opinion sorry)

Answer 8

sometimes you shouln't socialize with people who do that.

Go look for people who can have a good time without drugs

Answer 9

Just talk to them and have fun.  I've been around smokers and potheads for a while, and as long as you're fun to talk to they probably won't push the habit on you.  If they do you need new friends.

Answer 10

I would either find a new group of friends that more closely reflect ur interest, or try drinking tilt, its an energy drink/malt liquor, but its pretty lightweight, doesnt get u f'd up.
