When I drink alcohol... it's because I'm enjoying what little alone time I have with my husband. Pretty much, for the purpose of a special treat once in a while. I used to drink when I was stressed (which at one point became a constant thing), however I've since sobered up, and only drink for the sake of enjoyment, instead of stress relief.
When I drink soda... it's 'cuz I'm painfully addicted to it, and can't seem to quit, no matter how hard I try, and when I do try, I suffer horrible headaches.

I drink socially. I don't drink more then a few at a time because I have a medical condition which causes me to have severe gastric pains due to the alcohol content. Plus I have seen the way people act when they're toasted, and it's absolutely ridiculous. I like to laugh at how stupid they look.

1. I don't drink because it can cause an array of health problems sooner or later.
2. I like to have my thoughts clear — life is more exciting when you have coherent mind.
3. Drinking causes irrational thinking & decisions that can cause irreparable consequences.
4. I drink spring water, because it's refreshing and good for my body.

it's water without chlorine and I'm allergic to chlorine? yes. Because it's alcoholic and I need a sedative? no
Because it's carbonated or caffeine and I need the boost? no
I drink water and black tea and find that this is more than satisfactory and healthiest for my body and I am allergic to chlorine and have to be exceptionally careful.
I also drink because my body is made up to desire fluid intake for hydration and if I have to go to the hospital for it they will give me sodium chloride - you guessed it- clorine - so I have to take responsibility for my hydration - alcohol would not be in my best interest as it a dehydrator. Caffeine and carbonation usually require more and more to provide the same effects and are basically a legal drug and I have enough to deal with, without adding that to the issues.
So I drink to be physically healthy.

lots of reasons, but here are some:
1. social drinking
2. drinking to relax
3. celebratory drinking
4. drinking to write
5. drinking when depressed (though this NEVER helps!!!)
6. drinking with a romantic partner (but this NEVER happens!!!)
I guess your question might mean, when you drink a lot, you do it becuase. the answer to that is when i drink a lot it's because i'm depressed. life is pain. the drinking doesn't help, but it makes you numb for a while.

I dirnk for something different believe it or not. In the mudane, repetitive tasks of daily life (work, work, work), when the weekend comes myself and a few other usually go out on the weekend for something different. It is fun, don't get me wrong, otherwise I wouldn't do it. But it can be a mixed bag, good at times, a waste of money at others. As soon as I find something better to do around here and that also costs less, I'm doin that! lol

the answer from brad pit bull was pretty good; mostly a social thing when with other people at the club. a very big hobby in america and europe. drinking alone is no fun by comparison
