I'm not a teetotaler.
I've just seen countless members of my family either die by alcoholism, alcohol-related accidents, or fall into geriatric dementia caused by alcohol. I know my personality, once (if) I start drinking alcohol regularly I'll just go downhill fast. I've had alcoholic beverages like... two times in the past fourteen years. (Once at high school graduation. The second was a wine cooler at my sisters' four years ago.)
I'm perfectly fine with people drinking or whatnot. I just know I'll lose it if I start drinking regularly.
