    I can do without substance, but I couldn't live a sober life because sometimes I just need to go out of my mind. I can do it other ways without substance, but a little drinkin and druggin isn't bad every once in a while to me.

    You have no responsibilities at 19........

    I have gone for 2+ years without anything because of pregnancy and nursing.....it's not a big deal. I never get plastered anymore anyway....it's rare. :D Just an occasional beer.

    I do drink occasionally, but only very occasionally and usually only a beer or a glass of wine. :D

    if someone only smoked cigarettes would you consider that living a sober life.

    I live a sober life as well. I do a lot of meditation and imagery that helps me get through stressful times.

    I could and have for reasons that were not even my own. I stayed sober for 1 year just to show my support for someone else who was staying sober.

    I drink a glass of wine or drink 1 beer almost (not every) night. One beer is supposed to be healthy. I can stop there. (mainly because I get the pukes if I go further)

    there are many other ways to have out of mind experiences and other aspects of using drugs, so i think i could do it, not that i want to, but i could.

    doubt it. im not a heavy drinker or smoker but some circumstances are so dull without a little social lubrication. could i live substance free? possibly. would i want to? not in the forseeable future.
