I never drink alcohol related drinks, I would, however, enjoy some wine if it's free of it which one can get these days. I haven't tried it yet, though.

I rarely drink but when I do it is in moderation. I have never been drunk, nor do I ever want to be.

i like to drink every once in a while, like when i'm going out on weekends, i used to go somewhat near my limits in the past when drinking on said weekends (and there were also alot more of those weekends then now) i drank to the point of staggering home falling asleep on the couch for an hour and always managed to end up in my bed, i drink alot less now, i stopped testing my limits and it's been a while since i was really drunk now. but still alcohol is a good idea every once in a while, it loosens you up, gets you in whatever mood you want to be and makes you alot more emotional, plus it's nice if you want to have some more sleep, cuz you can forget waking up early in the morning after a good saturdaynight out!

I drink alcohol regularly: every new years eve. I do not drink on other occasions. I do not like the taste and the way it makes people lose control.

I used to binge drink a bit but decided to quit last year. But I think it's fine for most people, just not me.

In moderation it is fine. I have had a few secret sips.

I drink alcohol rather rare and moderately, mostly wine. Small doses sometimes help to relax (but it may be achieved even without them), but larger (more than 200-250 g of wine) amounts make me less active, even sleepy, and it makes social skills worse.

im 18 yrs old dx'd aspergers by multiple proffesionals, personally id say i fit in with every1 else OK when im sober, except when i drink i take great pleasure in socializing, calling ppl on the phone, etc... forget health, if thats what it takes to feel good socializing then whatever... if it f***s me over in the end and i live a shorter life, then atleast i had a good time. i mean, aspergers isnt exactly the best thing that ever happened 2 me...

When I'm around people which has drinked some beers and maybe a bit much of wine and so on, I have experienced that the way people starts talking always makes me feel that I don't want to talk to them.

I enjoy discussions with a little more depth in it and when people around me drinks a lot I often feel that the way people talks becomes uninteresting to me.

I don't drink... It makes me lose my consciousness, not too good for my life. And I don't need to fit into others as a loner...

I'm a straight edge. No recreational drugs, alcohol or tobacco for me. I don't see the appeal. Then again, you know how they say the smarter you are the more depressed you become, well, maybe that's why you're happier drunk.
