  Also I can’t understand how it would make you fat, either. “I stopped drinking alcohol and all this water is making me tubby!”

    If you abused any stims that make you lose weight a lot, dropping them usually pushes your bodyweight in the other direction. Know a few people like this. They always relapse

    Alcohol is not usually considered a drug.

      That is cultural. It’s poison you take to change your mind state and small enough amounts are usually tolerable enough to not cause too much of a problem. I have a drink from time to time but to say otherwise is incorrect.

      That said, I’m not sure where I said that it was.

        I’m not sure where I said that it was [drugs].

        Ok now put it in context to this conversation. The post said he gained weight after he became sober from “drug abuse”. You said it is unlikely to gain weight when you quit abusing alcohol. So therefore… He was not abusing alcohol but some other drug that has a side effect of weight loss. You’re welcome, now you can continue not using your brain.

      A drug is literally any substance one consumes for its effects, rather than for sustenance.

      Meth is a drug

      Ibuprofen is a drug

      Marijuana is a drug

      Caffeine is a drug

      Ketamine is a drug

      Alcohol is a drug

        the amount of rehab places that allow for nicotine is nuts

  And think of all the cool shit you’ve always wanted to do but couldn’t because you were too broke and too high that you can now start.
