Is it normal if I stop my vices, I feel like I am wasting my life?

  • My hedonistic rule for drugs: they must be social, ritual, give freedom and pleasure. They must not be banal, secluding, make you a slave and fuck your body. I love my senses too much, that's why I just smoke tobacco and weed now and then with a pipe and have never approached cocaine or synthetics, though I once tried a very controlled LSD with a more experienced friend. I don't want to become a short-winded fellow who can't even climb a ladder. I don't want my olfactive sense to be ruined. I like that my spirit takes part in the pleasure, instead of wallowing in it, as Montaigne says. I don't want to ruin my skin, get catarrhs and become unfit for sports, deprive myself of that beauty and that health. I drink at least once in a week, but I drink a lot more once in every two or three months when I go out with friends. I like the Falstaffian excess, even the moderation needs to be moderated.
    What you need is a compromise between the daily use and the long abstinence. We're the "made for alternative substances" kind, so I'm sure you'll find a way to solve your world. Best wishes, guy.
