I'm an alcoholic. I hate the taste of alcohol. I think it's kinda funny you say it tastes like acid. There's a lot of acids that I enjoy the taste of. Tomatoes, vinegar, oranges.
Alcohol tastes bad. It's your body correctly identifying poison. It's bad for you. The only reason I drink so much is that everything else is so much worse. It's basically a legal and deadly antianxiety.
I'll never understand how or why people drink it casually. Unless you're drinking to get drunk I cannot fathom why you'd want to drink it.
What do you mean? Alcohol is one of the harder and more addictive drugs you can do. Standard anti-deppressants aren't nearly as bad and neither are many illicit substances like cannabis and ecstasy. There are a few that are worse (heroin, crack cocaine, maybe benzodiazepines) but I don't think people would reach for these just to treat for anxiety.
Edit: Even Ketamine is only roughly as bad and dangerous as alcohol while being much better at treating things like depression and anxiety. It's regularly used now to treat these disorders in treatment resistant patients. A course of treatment can last up to one month after the last dose. It's can also be effective within one hour of the first dose.
I can't buy that stuff at a gas station. By "everything" I meant life in general.
You might want to reword that. It's not an obvious interpretation at least to me.
