Alcohol makes me want stronger drugs

So, I (23M) am a beer lover and big fan of alcohol, I do not drink to often, although I enjoy it.

Recently I have been having this issue where alcohol makes me fiend for drugs such as cocaine or meth (Which I have done both before). Sitting here after 7 or so 12oz (330ml) beers and I just start thinking about wanting something stronger. This is an issue that truly started after I tried meth for the first time a couple months ago, and although I have only done it once since, every time I drink I start craving stronger substances, and it could be anything.

I really don’t want to give up alcohol, but I have caught myself asking strangers if they know anyone who has some etc after getting really drunk, and it is honestly embarassing. I just want to be able to enjoy my beer without dealing with these cravings.

Have anyone else struggled with the same issue?
