Recovery journey

I'm curious to hear your thoughts on smoking weed or consuming THC while detoxing from alcohol. Do you think it’s okay, or does it defeat the purpose of detoxing? Some might argue that using weed could be a "cheat code" to ease the process, while others might say it's just trading one substance for another. Is it better to stay completely sober during detox, or could weed be a helpful alternative? Let me know what you think I'm trying to understand if it's a bad substitute or if it can actually help during the recovery journey.
