Says how something is achieved, and in its proper use it attaches to a verb turned into a noun: by expressing yourself and taking in the responses, by drinking water alongside the alcohol, by being seen and understood. The pitfall is its near-twin 으로서, which means 'as, in the role of' — and three of these lines actually use 으로써 where 으로서 would be correct, which is one of the most common slips native speakers make. If the sense is 'as a X', the right one is 으로서.
