Would like to limit or end use of alcohol/drugs..?

That alcohol is a really dangerous thing. It is physically harmful and is very addictive. Smoking weed has been demonstrated to help ease the cravings of other addictions, and weed isn't physically harmful and it is only physiologically addictive, so it is super easy to stop that when you want to. Moral of the story is to, at least in the short run, stop alcohol and worry about weed later. I know just how dangerous alcohol can be, seeing as it tore up my mother's family. You are only in your 20's so I am guessing you aren't so hopelessly addicted to alcohol that you can return to occasionally start drinking it again in the future. Remember, abuse is not the same as addiction, but is is certainly a slippery slope. However, if you are actually physically addicted, you need to go into rehab you can't do this thing by yourself.

I've found that unless you have ridiculously high self discipline, a very important step in quitting drugs and alcohol is completely removing yourself from environments where they will be present. At least for the first little while, until you're comfortable enough with your sobriety to be around it. If you have friends that smoke weed, you'll probably want to not be around them for a while. I tried to keep hanging out with using friends while I was getting clean, and just ask that they not smoke around me. But even that eventually backfires. If you know people around you have it, it will eventually make it's way into your hands. Alcohol is a little harder to avoid, but if you REALLY want to stop, you will really have to remove yourself from where there will be alcohol, again maybe just at first. You may not think you are an alcoholic (and I'm not saying you are) because maybe you only drink socially, you tell yourself you don't drink every day. But if drinking and using is bringing serious consequences into your life, you do want to take this seriously. Good luck!

Was in my 20's and had the same problems. Just don't include yourself with friends that drink or use drugs. Should you continue to use it will be difficult to get a job and you also put yourself in risk of legal troubles. Save you money that you normally spend on weed and alcohol in a box for a month, don't count it, just put money in the box, and count it at the end of the month and you will see that it cost a lot to use drugs alcohol.

Just Quit. They are no good for you. It's a waste of money and not to mention bad for your health.

rehab followed by sober living
