Do you drink?

Post Reply New Topic

No. Even though I still have a little over a year before I'm legally allowed to drink, I'm not interested in actually drinking, and don't really plan on it.

Very infrequently. Sex on the Beach mixed drinks (but no longer, as I can't have grapefruit juice), Bailey's, hard lemonade...but they make me overheat.

I rarely drink. Drinking makes me feel like crap, even if it is only one beer or one small glass of wine. I also get very drowsy when I drink, so I don't see much point in drinking it for the sake of being social.

I drink water, yes.

Alcohol? I never have and will not unless someone ties me down and pours it down my throat forcefully.

Believe it or not, I actually found an alcohol with a taste I can tolerate. It almost tastes like Sprite.

Yes. But not to get drunk(at least not most of the time). I use it as a sleep aid to help turn my mind off and get to sleep sooner than I otherwise would.

I used to, and even had a few years of chugging vodka straight out of the bottle. It was partly that I never get hangovers, I think. Or, that I always had a hangover? I dunno.

Now, I have weird blood pressure regulation problems and anything that relaxes blood vessels makes me feel ill, even a teaspoon of brandy on fruit salad. So, I haven't drunk anything alcoholic in I guess about 10 years.

Since I was a little girl, I've been absolutely obsessed with truth and honesty (Aspie, much?!). Because of that, I've had no interest in drinking at all. As a kid, I witnessed parental figures, "honorable" adults, and the like become different people when under the influence of alcohol (and drugs, frankly). I hated it. I wanted them to be themselves. I couldn't trust this new "alien" person. Anywho, I'm much more forgiving now when friends drink, etc., but I still have no interest. I like to experience everything exactly as it is. :^)

I get red in the face right away with alcohol. I'm just like mom. I hear its a mostly Asian thing. I also have digestive issues so I can't handle a lot of acidic foods or drinks.

I mix about one cocktail a week for myself, often a Negroni or a Manhattan. But there are weeks I do not drink at all.

I love Frauke, Stolichnaya, Old Bastard, Absinthe and Jim Beam. No wimpy drinks for me.
