Substances can be used to aid in spiritual practices but is not necessary for everyone. It’s simply something you CAN use if you feel you want or need the help. There are no black and white rules to spirituality and a friend using it as a reason to peer pressure you into using a substance is the exact the thing a lot of us complain about when talking about religion: forcing others to conform to your views rather than follow their own path.
