So ever since I got back from Milwaukee on Sunday I've also been straight edge...I'm not even trying, just never got the urge to have a drink or take an edible. Something I realized today.
I'm not saying I'm going to commit to that full time or quit those altogether, like I'm not saying I won't drink at the next show I attend (although that's not until next week) but it's nice knowing there's no real dependency, and I can probably return to the way I was pre-Covid in terms of use of such things.
I think you should try doing this for a somewhat longer duration before you conclude that there's "no dependency" here.
