To straight edge people: how do you do that?

Like drugs and alcohol makes things so much easier to deal with. I have to hit the Dutch every day before work or else I will snap at everyone. I’m a short tempered person lol but when I’m high I’m so calm and friendly 😂 the same when I sneak in booze with me. I mean I do it on my days off too but I save my pills for then. Idk man it just makes life easier. I couldn’t imagine life sober again, I’m so much happier now, and I used to talk shit that I would never drink or do drugs.

I've never done drugs not prescribed to me and usually stop taking them as soon as possible. I don't like the taste of alcohol nor the effects, so I also do not drink. My body has always been deformed and broken to some extent. So my identity is almost entirely mental. Impairing my mind feels like being physically restrained or trying to swim with weights on. I can't stand it, it feels so bad and gross.
