People who don''t drink alcohol, why?

你为什么不喝酒?

seriousbangs
Grew up a nerd so didn't touch the stuff when I was young. When I was old enough to drink I was old enough to see how many alcoholics were in my family.

从小就不擅长社交,所以小时候没碰过酒。等到年纪够大、可以喝酒之后,我又已经见过自己家里的那些酒鬼是什么样子的了。

Finally, every doctor I've ever told "I don't drink" has replied "good".

最后就是,我说“我不喝酒”的时候,每一个医生都会跟我说,“真棒。”

Not a doctor but, Good.

不是医生,也夸你一句,真棒。

There is no better feeling than telling a doctor you don’t drink. So many health issues come from alcohol use and being able to just check no on all the questions about it feels so nice.

没有什么比跟大夫说你不喝酒更好的感觉了。有太多健康问题都是来源于酒精,而能够排除所有与酒精相关的问题很让人感到开心。

My dentist recently told me that I got pretty good teeth, above average. Then he asked me about my eating and drinking habits, if I do lotta sweets and such. Told him that I got a sweet tooth even though I'm trying to hold back with it and in terms of drinking I only drink filtered tap water (I should add I'm not American) with no extra stuff other than some sparkly gas and I kid you not, you could see his face brighten up in relief and he told me just how many people drink nothing but sugar water (sodas) every single day and how much that ruins teeth more often than just eating candy.

我的牙医最近跟我说我的牙齿状况很不错,高于平均水平。然后他就问我我的饮食习惯怎么样,是不是吃很多甜食之类的。我跟他说自己尽管想要忍住不吃甜的,但还是有蛀牙,并且我只喝过滤过的自来水(应该补充一句我不是美国人),偶尔加点气泡,别的什么都不喝。我不跟你开玩笑,他的表情一下就放松了,跟我说有太多人每天除了糖水(苏打水)之外什么都不喝,那比光吃糖还要伤牙齿。

tl;dr drink water, your doctors and dentists will appreciate it for more than one reason.

太长不看:多喝水,你的医生和牙医会出于多种原因感激你这么做的。

ArgonTheEvil
Yeah. I just got diagnosed with FLD, and even though it’s the non alcoholic version, I still can’t drink anymore. I’m gonna miss my craft beers

没错。我刚确诊脂肪肝,虽然不是酒精肝,但我还是不能喝了。我会怀念我的精酿啤酒的。

mainbearpig
What symptoms did you have? Just curious

你有什么症状?只是好奇

el_muchacho
Fat Liver Disease is usually asymptomatic, unless it's an advanced stage with fibrosis or cirrhosis. I's detected via imagery, done usually after blood testing.

脂肪肝通常都没有什么症状,除非已经到了晚期,出现纤维化或肝硬化的情况。都是通过造影发现,然后通过血检确诊的。

The treatment is weight loss, exercise, and healthy diet with less/no sugar and fat and no alcohol.

治疗方法就是减肥,锻炼,以及少糖少脂、不含酒精的健康饮食。

ArgonTheEvil
None actually. I went in for a CT for a work related hernia, and they found the fatty liver in addition to it

其实没有症状。我是因为工作导致的疝气去做的CT,然后他们顺便查出了我有脂肪肝。

I had it : no soda, no alcohol, no fast food / junk food for 1,5 year + exercise et weight loss, was difficult but now my liver is like brand new, I'm healthy and I keep all the good aspect ; good healthy food and exercise.

我就曾经得过:一年半的时间内不喝汽水,不喝酒,不吃快餐或是垃圾食品,每天锻炼身体,虽然很困难,但是现在我的肝脏就像全新的一样。我很健康,并且我把所有的好习惯都保留了下来:健康的食物和锻炼。

Upstairs-unx2620
Hard liquor every night, started to see dependence setting in and stopped enjoying it, and started to interfere with work. Final straw was when I went to the hospital for severe withdraw symptoms. I'm about three weeks in not a drop, Going to rehab for a month in a couple days for a month. Wish me blessins...

每天晚上喝大酒,开始意识到自己产生了依赖,并且不再享受喝酒了,而且喝酒开始影响我的工作了。最后一根稻草是出现了严重的戒酒并发症之后去了医院。我已经差不多三个星期没喝酒了,等再过几天满一个月之后我就去戒酒所。祝我好运吧。

RegularEmbarrassed36
Long family history of people dealing and failing to control their alcohol addiction. So the best way to make sure this won't happen to me, is to avoid it as much as possible.

家里很多人都曾经面临过酒精成瘾的问题并且失败了。所以为了确保这种事情不会发生在我自己身上,最好的方式就是尽量避免喝酒。

Same. My father's side (father included) are alcoholics. And with my depression, it's just not a good idea.

我也一样。我父亲这边(包括我父亲)全都是酒鬼。并且我自己本来也抑郁。这就不是个好主意。

heymickieursofine
We have a family history of people self medicating for adhd and depression With dugs and alcohol

我们家有着用毒品和酒精来治疗自己的注意力缺陷障碍和抑郁的优良传统。

D3th2Aw3
Father's side as well. I've been sober for just over 3 years but my entire twenties were hell on earth. Dad has the propensity to be an alcoholic and uncle is an alcoholic. I never met their brother (my uncle) because he committed suicide around 18. Never met my grandfather because he committed suicide at 42. I barely got out of my twenties alive.

我也是我父亲这边。我已经戒了刚满三年的酒,但我二十到三十岁这段时间根本就是地狱。我爸有成为酒鬼的倾向,我叔叔压根就是个酒鬼。我从没见过他们的兄弟(我的另一位叔叔)因为他18岁那年就死了。也没见过我祖父,因为他42岁那年就死了。我能活过30岁真是幸运。

drillgorg
Yep add my name to this pile. My dad struggled with drug and alcohol addiction. Imagine being picked up from school and your friends see your dad have to breath into a tube to start his car. And my's mom abused her due to alcohol. I have zero interest in the stuff.

没错,把我也算进去吧。我父亲一直在饱受毒品和酒精成瘾的折磨,想象一下,爸爸从学校接你和朋友放学,你朋友看见你爸爸要先给交警吹口气才能发动汽车。我岳母也是因为酒精而虐待过我老婆。我对这种东西根本一点兴趣都没有。

milopoke
I also have the same fucked up addiction problems in both sides of the family here, although for me I've also experienced firsthand just how quick addiction can get to you. I got addicted to alcohol and in a span of three years I got to the point where I couldn't even go to sleep without drinking.

我也是父母两边都有一样烂透了的成瘾问题,尽管我自己也有过体验这种东西能有多快让你上瘾的第一首经历。我对酒精上了瘾,并且在三年的时间里,我已经到了睡觉都不能不喝酒的地步。

One night, I didn't have spare change to buy beer so I just...stopped. I challenged myself to stay sober for one day, and then a week, and then a month, and now four years later I don't even miss it anymore. I'm one of the lucky few who caught themselves slipping early on and I'll forever be thankful to my past self for being strong enough to start getting sober.

有一天晚上,我没零钱去买啤酒了,所以我干脆就……没喝。我挑战自己能不能一天不喝酒,然后是一星期,然后是一个月,现在已经过了四年,我都没有怀念过喝酒的感觉。我是幸运的少数能够在还来得及的时候放弃的人,我会永远感激过去那个足够强大,敢于戒酒的自己的。

FairExit4004
It has never appealed to me.

一直都对那东西不感兴趣。

Lurker_81
I'm with you. Most alcoholic drinks taste terrible (to me) and the few that don't are expensive and not worth it.

我和你一样。绝大多数的酒精饮料尝起来都很糟糕(对我来说),少数没那么糟糕的又太贵,不值得那个价钱。

I've been drunk a couple of times and hated the sensation.

我喝醉过几次,也非常讨厌这种感觉。

I've seen some of my friends get drunk, and they usually become idiots I wouldn't want to be friends with.

我见过一些朋友喝醉,他们通常醉了之后就会变成一帮二货,根本就不想跟他们交朋友。

So I guess I just don't get the appeal.

所以我猜我只是领会不到酒的魅力吧。

toinfinitiandbeyond
5 years ago I was diagnosed with liver failure from drinking too much. Stopped drinking and now no longer qualify for a transplant because, "you're no longer ill enough to require a new organ".

五年前我因为喝了太多酒确诊了肝衰竭。之后就再也不喝了,现在我已经失去了肝移植的资格,因为“你已经没有病到要换个新器官的程度了”。

im always scared to not feel well and i dont like the feeling of not being able to control my thoughts very clearly.

我一直都很担心自己会感到身体不适,并且我很不喜欢失去明确控制自己思维的能力。

DeepFriedCardboard
Yes same, hate being out of control

没错我也一样,讨厌失去控制

creamy_cheeks
It’s the exact opposite for me and probably some number of other alcoholics too. I have crippling social anxiety that makes me panic anytime I’m around people I don’t know. When I drink all the anxiety goes away and I can function normally in social situations.

这正好是我,或许还有另外一些醉鬼的对立面。我的社恐非常严重,只要身处陌生人的周围我就会感到恐慌。但是当我喝了酒之后,焦虑就会一扫而光,我就能正常地在社交场合进行活动了。

I’m friendly and funny and happy and outgoing when I’m drunk and most of all not afraid to be social. None of those things are true when I’m sober. When I’m sober I can’t bear to leave the house or have social interactions with anyone.

喝醉之后我既友善又有趣,并且很开心,而且绝大多数情况下我都不会害怕社交。但是清醒的时候我一样也做不到。在我清醒的时候,我连离开房间、或者和别人进行社交互动都做不到。

It’s quite sad really because I know that being drunk 24-7 is killing me but it’s the only way I can function normally. The saddest part is I’d like to date someday but there’s no way I could do it without being drunk. Alcohol is like a medicine that slowly kills you. It sucks

这真的很让人难过的,因为我知道七天二十四小时都保持喝醉的状态无异于自杀,但这是我能够正常工作的唯一方法。最令人难过的一点在于,我很想和别人约会,但如果不喝酒的话,我根本就做不到这一点。酒精就像是一剂会慢慢杀死你的良药。真糟糕。

Princess2123
A member of Alcoholics Anonymous once sent columnist Ann Landers the following:

匿名酒鬼的一个成员曾经给专栏作家Ann Landers写过这样一段话:

We drank for happiness and became unhappy. We drank for joy and became miserable. We drank for sociability and became argumentative. We drank for sophistication and became obnoxious. We drank for friendship and made enemies. We drank for sleep and awakened without rest. We drank for strength and felt weak. We drank “medicinally” and acquired health problems. We drank for relaxation and got the shakes. We drank for bravery and became afraid. We drank for confidence and became doubtful. We drank to make conversation easier and slurred our speech. We drank to feel heavenly and ended up feeling like hell. We drank to forget and were forever haunted. We drank for freedom and became slaves. We drank to erase problems and saw them multiply. We drank to cope with life and invited death.

我们为了幸福而喝酒,却变得难过。我们为了欢乐而喝酒,却变得悲惨。我们为了交际而喝酒,却变得好胜。我们为了精致而喝酒,却变得可憎。我们为了友谊而喝酒,却招来敌意。我们为了睡眠而喝酒,醒来却得不到休息。我们为了力量而喝酒,却感到无力。我们为了“保健”而喝酒,却遇到健康问题。我们为了放松而喝酒,却开始手抖。我们为了勇敢而喝酒,却变得畏葸。我们为了自信而喝酒,却开始多疑。我们为了健谈而喝酒,却口齿不清。我们为了天国的快感而喝酒,却落进了地狱。我们为了忘记而喝酒,却无法摆脱。我们为了自由而喝酒,却成为奴隶。我们为了解决问题而喝酒,却只能放任问题堆积。我们为了活下去而喝酒,却招来了死亡。

mapletreejuice
I'm such an anxious person that the thought of not being fully in control of myself and my thoughts is terrifying.

我实在是太焦虑了,喝酒之后就不能完全控制自己和自己的思想这种事情简直让我怕得要命。

YesItIsMaybeMe
I feel the same way. I just do not like the idea of being drunk. I would even go so far as to say I do not enjoy being high either.

我也有相同的感觉。我根本就没办法喜欢喝醉这个概念。我想说我也不喜欢嗑药嗑嗨了的感觉。

Even though many feel differently, I will never truly enjoy the sensation

尽管有很多人和我感觉不同,但我还是永远也没办法真正享受这种感觉。

SundayMorningTrisha
I don't like anything about it. Tastes awful, hate the feeling of being buzzed/drunk, despise hangovers.

我压根就喜欢不起来。味道就很糟糕,感觉醉醺醺的也很糟糕,并且宿醉太恶心人了。

as_a_fake
Tastes awful

引用:“味道就很糟糕”
原创翻译:龙腾网 https://www.ltaaa.cn 转载请注明出处


I've had people telling me since I was first old enough to drink "have you tried ____? You can't even taste the alcohol!", and let me tell you, every. single. time. I can taste nothing but the alcohol. All I've ever tasted regardless of the drink is the way rubbing alcohol smells, and I will never understand how people can like it.

我自从到了可以饮酒的年龄,就一直遇到人跟我说“你试过___吗?根本尝不出酒精的味道!”我告诉你吧,每一次我都是除了酒精的味道之外什么都尝不出来。不论饮料是什么,我能尝到的只有酒精的那股味道,我永远也无法理解人们为什么会喜欢这种东西。

That said, I recently tried a beer that at least had a nice pineapple taste buried deep under the intense aroma of pure hops.

话虽如此,最近我尝过一款啤酒,至少在它浓郁的纯啤酒花香味之下隐藏着不错的菠萝香味。

nooit_gedacht
Exact same experience here as well. You can always taste it, but they keep recommending new things

和你有完全相同的经历。你永远都能尝出来酒精味儿,但他们还是会向你推荐新东西。

kgaviation
I’m quiet and I hate people who always tell me I need to go have some drinks to “loosen up.” Heck, I even deny laughing gas at the dentist because I just hate that loopy/buzzed feeling.

我本身是个安静的人,并且我很讨厌那些总是跟我说我得喝点酒“放松放松”的人。妈的,我甚至去看牙都拒绝吸入笑气,我就是讨厌那种醉醺醺上头的感觉。

MiffTuck
Do you also get the incessant comments from drunk people of “oh you’re so GOOD!”, “I could NEVER do that”, “aren’t you BORED?!”. Of this conversation repeatedly coming up? You bet I am!

你是不是也会经常听到喝醉了的人跟你说“我去那你可真——牛逼!”“我——肯定不行”,“你就不腻——得慌吗?”之类的话,一遍又一遍?反正我是!

CaptHayfever
Gotta say, when the activity is just "sitting in a loud smelly bar with nothing else to do while everyone around me binge-drinks, thus making the place louder & smellier", then yeah, I do get bored.

不得不说,当活动仅限于“坐在又吵又难闻的酒吧里,别的什么都不能做,只有身边的每个人都在喝大酒,让这个地方变得更吵更难闻”的时候,那我确实会觉得挺无聊的。

Roark1300
I used to. Now: I don't like the way it makes me feel. My kidneys hurt afterward.

我以前也喝。现在我开始讨厌喝完酒之后的感觉了。我的肾会疼。

RomysBloodFilledShoe
The way I feel during/after drinking is drastically different in my 30’s than it was in my 20’s. Hangovers can last DAYS and, like you said, internal organ pain becomes a thing.

我三十岁之后喝完酒的感觉和二十多的时候已经完全不一样了。宿醉能持续好几天,并且和你说过的一样,内脏的疼痛也会变得很严重。

WeekendRoxanne
Wastes money. Causes headaches and beer belly. Makes people unsafe drivers. I’ve seen how it ruined my boyfriend’s life before he died.

浪费钱。头疼,还会长啤酒肚。让人们变成不安全的司机。我见证了前男友去世之前,酒精是如何毁掉他的生活的。

popstar249
Emphasis on the beer belly. I've noticed how many of my friends from college have ballooned in size and the number one cause I can deduce is alcohol / beer consumption.

啤酒肚这点很重要。我注意到大学时的很多朋友在毕业之后都像气球一样胖起来了,我推断出的唯一原因就是酒精/啤酒的饮用。

HatfieldCW
I read somewhere that sedentary living and advancing in age while maintaining a teenager's diet is more to blame than beer for the sloppy physique that so many of us develop.

我读到一种说法,久坐的生活方式、年龄的增长,加上仍然保持青少年时期的饮食习惯,在我们很多人身材走形这一点上,比起啤酒扮演着更加重要的角色。

I'm going to go ahead and blame the beer, though. Keeps things simple.

但我还是把锅甩给啤酒吧。简单点。

MC-ClapYoHandzz
i think its kinda weird that the default is yes to drinking. people can get reeeeeal inquisitive and jump to bizarre conclusions when you tell them you don't drink

我觉得对饮酒来说默认的回答是“可以”这件事就很怪。当你跟他们说你不喝酒的时候,他们会变得特别特别好问,并且会得出一些稀奇古怪的结论。

JaiOW2
Most people will hit you with "because it's enjoyable".

大多数人的回答是“因为喝酒很开心”。

Why they enjoy it will definitely differ. However I always say; why reach for what's already in my hand? Socialising with friends? Playing video games with said friends? A date? A romantic dinner with your SO? I enjoy all these things immensely, I've never felt like I need to enhance them or use a substance to make them fun. Don't let perfect be the enemy of good.

但是他们为什么开心呢?不同的人有不同的回答。然而我总是说,我本来就很开心,为什么还要寻开心呢?我可以和朋友们社交,可以和朋友们打游戏,可以约会,可以和另一半进行一场浪漫的晚宴,我充分地享受这一切,我从没觉得自己需要让这些行为变得更好一点,或者加点料让它变得更有趣一点。别让完美成为优秀的敌人。

If it does enhance it for you, and you do the enhancing responsibly, good for you. If you find you need alcohol to enjoy these activities or cope, maybe it demands some more introspection and self work, just because it's normal doesn't mean it shouldn't also be questioned as to why you yourself may drink alcohol.

如果加点料确实能让体验变得更好,并且你在以足够负责的方式去做,那我为你感到开心。但如果你发现自己是不得不用酒精才能让这些行为变得有趣,不然就只能应付,那或许你需要自我反省,自我改善。这是正常现象并不意味着这就不能被质疑,为什么你自己要喝酒。

Thalionalfirin
Because I don't want to and that's the only reason I need.

因为我不想喝,这就是我需要的唯一原因。

Euphoric-Fruit3739
People who don't play football, why? You don't dance macarena in the shower? Please explain. Why aren't you eating sushi right now?

你为什么不踢球?你为什么不在洗澡的时候跳马卡雷纳?给我个理由。你为什么现在没有在吃寿司?

DebbieAddams
So many people who drink don't understand why someone would choose not to

太多喝酒的人不理解选择不喝酒的人为什么要不喝酒。

Fickle_Grapefruit938
Someone once asked me what I did do to relax bc I don't drink and don't do drugs, as if it is impossible to relax without some stimuli

有人曾经问过我放松的时候做些什么事,因为我不喝酒也不吸毒,就好像放松的时候不给自己加点东西的话就不可能似的。

dreamer0303
Every time we finish a hard class or exam my classmates rave about getting hammered when they get home. They ask what I’ll do:

每次我们上完一节很难的课或者考完试,我的同学们都会说自己回家之后要喝个一醉方休。他们问我要做什么:
原创翻译:龙腾网 https://www.ltaaa.cn 转载请注明出处


Reading, walking, playing with my cats, eating some good food, video games, sleeping, literally anything else?

看书,散步,逗猫,吃点好吃的,打游戏,睡觉。还有别的吗?

It’s kinda freaky to me how it’s like their only hobby :/

喝酒变成他们唯一的爱好,我觉得这真的挺可怕的。

anothersolidhome
Alcohol is the only drug, if you don’t partake, people think there is something wrong with you. Your body rejects alcohol; it hates it. I realize the cheeky answer from the Brewsters would be…”well mine doesn’t!” Not true. It does. Not only is alcohol literally poison, it can strip your body of valuable nutrients and has a great effect on the CNS. With all of that said; have I drank? Yes. Probably more than a small village. But I can say, every bad decision I have ever made I was intoxicated. One day, I just decided to stop. Best decision I have ever made. My wife still drinks but I have zero desire based on my past experience. If I even have a tiny sip anymore, I feel a bit ill. Not for me.

酒是唯一一种,如果你不参加的话,人们会觉得你有问题的毒品。你的身体拒绝酒精;痛恨酒精。我知道酿酒师们精妙的回答会是:“我的身体不会!”错误的,也会。酒精不止是真正的毒药,它还会榨干你身体里的营养元素,并且对中枢神经系统也有巨大的影响。说了这么多,我喝过酒吗?我喝过。喝的还不少。但我可以说,我做过的每一个糟糕的决策,都是在酒醉的状态下做出的。有一天,我决定要戒酒。那是我这辈子做过的最正确的决定。我老婆仍然喝酒,但根据我自己的过往经历,我对酒精一点兴趣都没有。我哪怕再沾一小口,都会觉得有点难受。我不适合这玩意。
