Yikes. That sounds like a string of horrible experiences. Also, alcohol is the most overrated intoxicant mankind has found.

I find coliving and cohousing as worthwhile pursuits since the endgame is a level of community support and communion that amounts to a perfect harmony between a human being and all their needs, from the mundane nervous level system stuff all the way through to self-actualization.

I talked to Jason Benn about it (https://maxefremov.com/cohousing-coliving-why/), and I would totally check out his site for his public search of coliving done well (https://jasonbenn.com/).

I suspect you learned a lot about identifying grifters from the sincere. That will probably serve you well if you continue to experiment in cohousing!
