I sometimes think about how people with homes drink alcohol for pleasure and sadness.. and wonder how much more they'd drink if they were homeless, especially if they needed to stay warm, etc.

Alcohol isn't my coping mechanism of choice. I'm also not in other people's shoes based on what they might be able to access to get through a few hours or just a day.
