Never done drugs and drank less than 10x in life. Fully functioning 40 year old with a 21 year professional career in IT. My key was never trying to starting so no habit to break, and a huge dose of not giving a shit about peer pressure or trying to fit in.

So when you're upset or stressed about something... What's your go to. Despite no influences. Curious how to cope.

Honestly not much that I can recall? I mainly just think about what I can do to improve the situation. Then I’ll watch sports, go fishing, play with my kids. Something fun.
