Do you not drink alcohol?

Post Reply New Topic

I don't drink any more due to the fact that alcohol usage is very problematic for me. --I haven't touched the stuff for about 18 years, and can't say that I miss the experience in the least.

i don't drink i hate alcohol
except good old wine which i seldom may drink

I'm an executive member of the Boozy Mommas Club; when the kids go to bed out comes a nice chardonnay! Keeps me from going entirely insane.

i drink moderately on a semi-regular basis, i may actually go weeks without a drink... sometimes months.

summer is usually an exception to the rule; my drinking does not exceed being moderate, the frequency of occurence increases.

I drink. Rather too much, as it happens. Half a bottle of Laphroaig and three bottles of strong bitter tonight.

I have alcohol on very rare occasions. It is not something I ever seek out. I dislike the taste and have no interest in the effects drinking more than one or two would have on me. I have probably had 3-5 drinks in the past 10 years, mainly when at a social gathering that had nothing non-alcoholic to drink.

I have zero alcohol intake. Haven't really drunk alcohol since I was about 20 to be honest. I go for years at a time, literaaly and I don't know that I'll ever intake it again

I drink to inebriation every single night.

I do not drink it. I don't care to either. Seen enough of it's destructive power in too many of my friends and family.

I love spirits.

I don't drink. I know I'm also underage, but when I am allowed to drink I don't plan to drink. Coca-Cola is good enough for me.

No, in fact Im affraid of people who do. Something weird happens to them and they change... its creepy. I have heard that people drink alcohol because they "find it easier to socialise and have more fun" if they do. I can feel it a pity for them somehow to need something like that to have fun. I can have fun anyway without it....

Once In my life I tasted alcohol by mistake. It was at a disco in Estonia in 1994
I was terrified to be in a foreign country with people I neither knew properly and didnt trust. I was so affraid they would get drunk and I would be left alone. One of them let me taste and I thought it was orange juice as thats what it looked like. When I was told it was alcohol I panicked and started to cry because I was so affraid of it and didnt know what it could do to me....

Apart from that I have never and never will drink alcohol...

It's not a toxic substance unless you drink a lot. First it will make you slightly elated, then you will calm down. Occasionally you will get aggressive if provoked but more likely you'll just want to sleep.

What were you doing in Estonia anyway?

Yeah by logic I understand the process would go something like that now. But by then I was young and allowed my fear to take over. I wouldnt panic if it was today most probably but on the other hand I havent put myself in any similuar situation since then...

I was in Estonia with a group of students of a course I was attending by then. A journey was included towards the end of the course and for some reason we choosed Estonia...Oh yeah they didnt get drunk enough to the stage where they lost control and the day after said "I dont remember what happened yesterday" kinda..

Btw, My cousin had a cat many years ago called Tequila. I thought that was a cool name of a cat. Some years later I found out that its actually the name of a kind of alcohol, oops. Also I found out that my cousin tried to make her own alcohol in her home somehow but when I visited her I understood absolutely nothing!!

I've never drunk tequila. Can't imagine that it's very nice really.

It's fairly easy to make your own alcohol if you wish. When I get my own place later this year I plan to make a second attempt at brewing an apfelwein. It needs patience, cleanliness and time more than anything else - great for someone with a OCD cleanliness symptoms I suppose.

You're into photography? Me too. My Flickr account is here.

I drink alcohol rarely. When I do drink it I prefer alcopops as I don't like taste of beer all that much.
