A suggestion for 1: "I've had bad experiences with alcohol, it's better if I don't have so much as a drop".
Not technically a lie, but you might have to lie if pressed further. The implication is that you were once an alcoholic, recovered, and are at risk if you have even one drink. That's actually true of many people and will not mark you as a wimp.
A suggestion for 2: once you have a drink in had, and sip very tiny amounts of it from time to time, people will generally leave you alone. Stretch a single drink over the course of an entire social occasion and I doubt many people would notice.
