Yeah, no disagreement. I mean I'd had alcohol before I'd even gotten over my resistance to the idea of antidepressants

For me that's the "hard drugs" distinction, since the majority of crimes committed under the influence are still just alcohol

I've heard pretty convincing arguments that alcohol is more dangerous than cocaine, and I'd argue it's worse than opiates too

But yes alcohol does lower your cholesterol, it's a factor in why red wine is supposedly good for you

The effect isn't strong enough for it to be something they can officially recommend though
