The short answer is no...it doesn't affect marijuana recovery. But be very cautious. Be careful that you don't end up trading one addiction for another.
A question to ask yourself is why drink alcohol, why smoke cigarettes? Why did you smoke marijuana? Why do we do those things that lead to addictions?
Because those things feel good. And like you said, drinking alcohol and smoking cigarettes made you feel like your old self. And presumably you liked that feeling. So what is to stop you from drinking more alcohol and smoking more cigarettes anytime you want to feel good? It is a slippery slope, especially for anyone that has struggled with addiction.
Most of us, including me, will justify that it is simply stress relief. We will justify that we are adults and that life isn't worth living without at least some indulgence. We all need at least some vice, right? I mean, how else are we to deal with the stress of life? And we see other people seemingly drinking, smoking, and managing not to get addicted, so why not us?
The reason for all of the above is that your question sounds like you are fishing a bit. it sounds like you are asking for permission to drink alcohol and smoke cigarettes as a repslacedment or substitute for weed. Be careful.
