As long as that works for you, then what society or other individuals think is irrelevant. My personal goal is to not drink because of the affects it has on my body, both physically and psychologically, as well as how it affects those around me. As long as I am able to obtain that goal, I couldn't frankly care less what other people want to call me or my methods.
Do what is best for you and enjoy it - whatever you want to call "It"!
