Proud of you and honored to read this story and publish it at one year. I don't drink either. Not for any reason. I never had a problem although I did plenty of dumb things growing up because of it. I just have no use for it. It never added anything to my life even when I thought it did. I may have a drink again, I may not, but I do find it odd that people question others who choose not to drink, for whatever reason. Like, I don't give anyone a hard time for not liking iced tea.
