drugs or alcohol?

[philipma1957]

Of course, whatever is done excessively must have side effect at the end of the day. You can drink alcohol but drink responsible and know your limit. Those that don't have self control over whatever they are doing should not involve themselves in activities that one can get addicted to, so that they can live a healthy life.

Indeed, both drugs and alcohol be really addictive if taken excessively.
Many people see them as a way to kill depression and to distract their mind from certain things, it does actually work for them at first and that's why they see it as an option and always run to it whenever they have such feelings, but fail to realize that the more they expose themselves to those substances, the more they  are at risk to get addicted, and such addiction can be really deadly and dangerous to the human body, both physically, psychological and emotionally too.

Hard drugs are very dangerous to the health and excessive alcohol intake damages the heart and can cause high blood pressure, and stroke. While drugs are make someone abnormal. This is why if you feel you are taking any of these stuffs it should not be done too much, but the problem is when you are addicted to it, it become a big problem.

That's true, but I believe that hard drugs has even more severe consequences than alcohol, and it also has more potential for addiction than alcohol.
A person can be drinking for years yet not being addicted and also able to regulate his drinking habits and in some way avoiding the health problems of excessive alcohol intake, but hard drug isn't like that, it's impossible for one to take hard drugs for years and not get addicted or start feeling the psychological effects of the drugs.

I do not know anyone that shoot heroin twice a year. I do know a few heroin addicts 3 died  from od and 2 quit.

None of the above, for the sake of my mental health and I don't want to be an addict.

Not just mental health but also  physical health more on mate because this is what the drugs and alcohol attacking , and this will also change your behavior and your attitude in long run.

so why need to choose one when you can deny both for your own safety?

If we do tend to compare both then we do know that alcohol is much better even though its not but in comparing about drugs on which this is one is much more severe or something
that will affect your mind and body or specially with mental state on which this is something that will affect you in overall. You would really be that crazy which is unlike
when you are just that an alcoholic person then it wont really be giving out that outright effects which is unlike when you are really that having that dealing with drugs
which it could destroy everything not really just that on physical but also with your relationship with your family or loved ones.
