Alcohol Alternatives

[Grape Ape]

I haven't had a drop of alcohol in over a year now, and have no plans on drinking anytime soon. I have issues with alcohol, but do not have any addiction issues otherwise. Alcohol just effects me poorly. However, my social life has taken a huge hit because I don't go out much anymore. I really miss the nightlife and clubbing though. So any recommendations for an alcohol substitute?

I've tried phenibut and thoroughly enjoyed it. Felt like a mix between xanax and a few beers. Worked well in one or two small social settings, but not sure for more of a party scene.

Thought maybe I should add a stim for some energy with phenibuts disinhibiting and relaxing effects.anyone have any experience with Axon or another stim that might be slightly euphoric?

Kava Kava seems as it might be a bit of a replacement. Anyone with experience?

Anyway, you guys get the idea here, so lay down some ideas for a potential party stack.


PS: Keep in mind I'm a daily weed smoker with 3-4 month dry out periods throughout the year. Most things will probably be in conjunction with marijuana.

I haven't had a drink in 10 months but I didn't drink all that much so it's really no biggie. I usually drink juice or a ginger ale if I go to an event so I don't look awkward.

Let's just say I'm in my mis twenties and I miss chasing tail and having a night out with the boys. That said, I'm not looking for the "have a good time without drugs" speach. That isn't the point if this thread simple and plain.

ah-hoo, you are looking to get intoxicated, I didn't realize. I thought you were just looking to be social.
You could drink 8 oz of DM cough syrup. That's what my friends and I used to do.

Dissociatives with addition of an upset stomach isn't my cup of tea, but thank you for the input.

I don't drink more than one or two anymore and I know what you're saying about it sucking to hang out with a bunch of drunks when you're sober. I got around it by focusing more attention on social aspects and overcoming inhibitions without chemical aids. It sucks worse when you fail, but at least you don't have to worry about whiskey dick when you succede.

When its the local bar; no problem. I'll hang for a few hours, BS with the guys, hit on a chick or two and then jet out when that gets old.

This is more for when I get the invite to hit a club in Philly or Atlantic City and know its more of a night out.

I love getting dressed up, fresh hair cut and shave, expensive cologne etc, and pretending I'm the shit for the night.

Came to recommend weed. I was beat to the punch.

Yes, but weed can make me a little bit of an introvert so I usually leave it for unwinding before bed. It has treated me nicely on a dance floor in the past.

Saw your sister company "Celtic Labs" has a few possible products out there. Any comment on that?
