Which is worse weed or alcohol?
I would say alcohol, definitely. Alcohol is physically addictive, and cold-turkey withdrawal from it can easily kill you. You can also overdose and die on it fairly easily. Alcohol is literally a poison. Marijuana, on the other hand, cannot kill you unless you smoke so much of it that you end up with lung cancer. Its physical effects on the body are minimal. It's virtually impossible to overdose on it, and even if you do manage to overdose on it, you most likely will not die. And since it is not physically addictive, there are no physical withdrawal symptoms.

Your sobriety and life could depend on it.
