So alcohol does not allow you to deal with the problem, to actually express your feelings in front of other people, yet how many people take a swig before doing similar stuff? So alcohol obviously would do for a number of people.

And don't give me that crap about molecules behaving differently in different matters and double standard. It has nothing to do with this at all, I could repeat my last example, but you seem to miss what I tried to convey through it:

I drink water because I need it to survive. I don't drink alcohol, smoke weed or take E because I need to survive.

You did create a double standard by this simple matter:
You are talking about 2 drugs, admittedly, different drugs. They both however radically change something in your system for no real good reason other than leisure... And leave you with after-effects that at best can be described as undesirable.
Now you happen to take 1 of the 2. And suddenly, it becomes better and healthier than the other drug.
That's what I call a double standard.

Now telling me I have a double standard because I like to drink necessary fluids (for my metabolism at least) and am not too fond of injesting pure poison... that sounds too me like you should perhaps rethink your argument.
