*Yes.. from myself

*Yes.... the temptation comes from myself, but its pretty easy to resist since ive been abstaining for a long time, and i realize i have an addictive personality that would more than likely result in me becoming an alcoholic
4) Do people view you differently solely on the basis that you do not drink? If so, how?
*Yes , other than being sober im pretty much the same as any other college student, so that aspect is one of the first things noticed in the college atmosphere. Also being straight edge in Salt Lake City comes with a very negative stereotype
5) How many college students do you know (that you come into physical contact with; not through the computer) that also do not drink? at least a dozen that actually go to college
