no i don't think so. the alcohol itself is just a dirty substance. but the kind of alcohol you drink affects both the buzz and your behavior. for example, red wine is far less destructive than bourbon. each one is its own unique "spirit." but you're always going to have that nasty gritty feeling and smell the next day, no matter how you ingest it. even a pill won't fix that.    sure i've seen that too. but you probably don't think about all your friends and relatives who only enjoy a good wine on holidays. honestly occasionally drinking red wine seems good for you. a few months ago i started drinking liquors a couple times a week. under a lot of stress and i am concerned about longterm abuse. but i think it's the people who need a little swig to get their morning going that you have to worry about.  i'll probably cut back to once a month or none at all, since i only really drank as a 19yo when i first got access to it. it was never that much fun, and i went more than a decade without it. as a 33yo it would be odd but not unheard of for me to suddenly become a proper alcoholic. hopefully it doesn't transform into that.
