My Friends brought up with me about their concern about my substance abuse
Post Body

So I'm 21M and my friends are about a decade or so older than me. Yesterday we were all setting up a movie at my place and since I got home from work I decided to have some vodka and coke. I pour 1 glass and down it pretty quick and 2 of my friends told me they were scared of how easily I drank all of it. Now I had my first beer when I was 14 and drank liquor many times before I was 21. I'm used to the taste and have acquired it. They then asked me if I was okay and if there are any things that bothered me. I was confused by all of this because they know I can handle it and I only had 1 glass and was planning on having only one. Problem is in this situation if I say I'm fine and there's really nothing wrong at all I just wanted a drink (which is what I told them) they won't believe me and think I'm hiding my emotions. I'm being 100% percent honest I'm fine I just wanted a drink. It kinda irritated me because from my perspective I get home from a 12 hour shift, made a little something to drink then get persecuted for it like they never seen me drink before. I've been to bars and clubs with these people and we have drank WAY more than 1 glass of vodka. Look I really really do appreciate the concern and I understand it's coming from a place of love but at the same time just because they can't handle the taste of vodka doesn't mean I can't. I don't even drink everyday. Really I only drink socially. Now I do get high every night with 200mg gummies and again I'm fine I just genuinely enjoy how it feels. I feel as though I have been responsible with it. I always make sure I done everything I needed to do before getting stoned and its not like I'm passing out and getting wild when I'm intoxicated. When I'm high I listen to music and meditate about plans I got for life. Like side hustles and how to do my job even better. Honestly edibles taught me to only eat when I'm actually hungry, improved my overall mood, I don't go out stoned or drive, and also my friends smoke to and I would argue they do it almost as much as me so wtf. Also they been around me when I'm intoxicated before many times and I'm just chilling and enjoying everyone's company and I know I don't act problematic when I'm altered because they tell me I was one of the main reasons they all had a good time. Again I know they meant well and I'm glad to call these guys my friends but Jesus christ I was just fixing a drink yaknow?
