Alcohol is my only drug! I don't do illegal drugs!

I am not an addict of any sort other than that of alcoholism. Well, I do smoke (cigarettes), but ONLY when I drink. I have no other want or need for them. It is like drinking and smoking come hand in hand for me.

I have no prior drug use. Sure, I've smoked weed from time to time, rarely ever by just maybe once a couple months. It is only when offered, and I usually turn it away. It makes me anxious and paranoid. I just don't like the high.

No other illegal substances have ever caught my attention. I have never tried drugs like acid, shrooms, coke, heroine, pcp, meth... NONE of those, and I have absolutely no want to ever try them.

The only type of drug that I feel I would get addicted if getting my hands on would be prescription pain killers like Vicodin. I was once prescribed Vicodin when I had my wisdom teeth pulled, and (like most) that shit was wonderful. I ran through the bottle prescribed, and vowed to not pursue it further. This was 4 years ago. To this day, I have not gone that path, and I hope I never do.

However, there is one prescription drug I have. It is Xanax. I take it for the anxiety I have accumulated over time that I feel has been either the fix or cause for my alcoholism. The first couple times I had panic attacks resulting in gagging and vomiting resulted in me both drinking and ultimately going to a doctor to get Xanax. I don't know if that makes sense to any of you, but that is how it went.
