#14I always have a coffee first thing in the morning, another in my travel mug on my drive to work, and usually make another when I get to the office.
Some mornings/extremely busy days I'll sub in a caffeine pill for that extra boost.
I usually cycle down my caffeine use a few times a year, going from my usual 3-8 down to about 2 coffees a day. I find this helps me from building too much of a tolerance and needing to constantly increase the dosage.
I really only drink alcohol on the weekends and even then not very much.

#17Almost no alcohol - 1 every few weeks or months depending on circumstances. Party/reception or business dinner at high-end restaurant. And, then it is just one drink.
I am not against alcohol but very cautious around it. I have lost a friend to a drunk driver and had family members lose custody of their kids because abuse of alcohol ruined their ability to drive, work and function as responsible adults.
On the other hand I know plenty of people who drink alcohol much more regularly than I without any notable effect.

#18I drink a fair bit of alcohol; probably 3-10 servings during the week and 10-20 servings most weekends. Not drinking would affect my social life.
