          so you're telling me there's a drug that makes me cool and normal? and all i have to do is sleep a bunch the next day? why hasn't anyone thought of just doing that all the time?

          Been there, done that, seems great briefly then abruptly ends up awful when you want to quit and realize your tolerance has built up to some physical chemical dependency and you feel like when SpongeBob got the suds, would not recommend

              CW addiction/booze stuff

              spoiler

              Being briefly Mx. Lahey "right in the slot" 0.12 can be a good time for awhile but using booze as an anxiety treatment is a bad time, especially when "does anyone suspect that I've been drinking?" is also something you get anxious about lmao

              Bad feedback loop Never really got sloppy wasted around other people or made any dangerous bad decisions thankfully but yeah that's definitely a slippery slope you don't wanna go down

                      I know it sounds like a "um sweaty have u tried yoga?"-ass suggestion too, but strenuous exercise really helps me dial down the flighty/anxious impulses I get too

                      Granted I was a weirdo gymrat type for awhile and got into "make number go up" one rep max increases and that might be at odds with the kind of bodytype you want but HIIT cardio and isometrics can be good for that too

                      Probably the calmest I've ever been mentally was after "damn I hope I can still walk to my car and drive home because my legs are complete jelly now" leg days, those endorphins are something

                        Naw it's a good suggestion, I have a bike and as a youngun I did a lot of jogging and biking and stuff. I've been meaning to get a rowing machine or small weights anyhow.

                        ....sadly my body is degrading very fast, I am weak and ailing bocchi-cry so a lot of that I'll have to start small and might be a bad idea anyway.

                        I wouldn't mind some muscle definition, being able to lift your wife is fuckin awesome for example. And post workout high is great, I do miss it ngl...

          alcohol abuse

          yeah, it works. but, then you're drinking gin and tonics every day at 4pm after work convincing yourself it's normal and ok actually. trust me

          I'm now thankfully

            It doesn't seem worth it ultimately, thankfully. Thus far I've been good at not relying on substances.
