It's a pretty rare occurrence for me.

I picked up some of that wax stuff in January of 2017, and still have some left.

Usually, it's a want to shut down. Stop thinking. I did a lot during a project where I was working 100+ hours a week, and had so much work that I couldn't sleep, and couldn't afford a hangover.

It's more of a replacement for getting sloshed so I can sleep, or at least reset my brain and turn it off for a few. Also, if I really want to get into some music, it helps slow things down, so I can hear patterns in the notes and really FEEL them.

Other than those two reasons, I prefer the alcohol - I control the buzz, taking it as mellow or as deep as I want, and the resulting next day is punishment and a reminder to calm the fuck down.
