…Because alcohol is sold everywhere.

I’ve got friends who are alcoholics, I had friends who were meth beads they’re either dead or who knows where now. I know which is worse for an individual.

...and drugs aren't sold everywhere?

Fuck no?

Drugs are sold by dealers, and can often go through periods of “drought” where supply isn’t available.

Alcohol is sold in shops, events, etc. I could get a drink within minutes at any time of the day. If I want drugs I have to message people and fuck around with hook ups and waiting in dodgy locations.
