Sometimes I wonder what a booze/pot/acid/ecstasy free me would be like. Binged on all of them as a teenager. Would I be 10% smarter? 20%? More? Better moods?
"n of 1" story. One summer between semesters at university, my room mate and I really took up smoking weed. After about a month or two, I really noticed a difference in myself mentally. Took longer to think things through, many more "That was stupid moments" etc. I decided to stop then and it all seemed to go back to normal.
You know son, when I was younger, I kept to the straight and narrow, and it made me who I am today. looks back on life with regret
