unless the drinking, smoking, using, etc makes you less ready to shift, i don't see why this should be a problem. of course, most people who do these things aren't ready to shift anyway. it's not because they do these things that makes them unprepared for the shift, rather they do these things because they're not ready. so it's an affect, not the cause.
personally, i owe my own awakening to using cannabis. without it, i'd probably still be angry and judgemental like i was during my high school years, which was only a few short years ago. smoking cannabis really gave me a new perspective on life and made me much more open-minded to things i never would have considered or taken seriously before. had i not been high when i saw the 2001 disclosure project briefing, i probably wouldn't have given the testimony a second thought. i'm much more easy going and open-minded now.
for the record, i'm not recommending the use of cannabis. i'm simply saying good things can potentially come from it, though once you reach a certain point in your spiritual evolution it is no longer useful, though i may not have reached that point yet (i smoked about a week and a half ago).
