I never have, or currently partake in neither alcohol or drugs, or tobacco for that matter. I consider happiness that is drug-induced a cowardly choice, so I cannot speak from experience on the subject.
Freedom is more important that being happy. However, even if drugs were completely addiction-free, I still wouldn't use them since I consider the dulling of the senses and mind to be the surrendering of one's freedom on a much more essential level that it would be to restrain one's physical capability.


As for spirituality, I consider it a crutch, be it drug-induced or not.
