Am I an alcoholic if

[FrankCostanza]

I can have a few drinks without craving more? I tend to get smashed but sometimes I’ll have like 3 drinks

How long can you do without boozing boyo?

[northernlights7]

Way too lacking in details to really say.

That being said, if you're starting to legitimately question whether you have a problem with alcohol, you most likely do. That chit is poison. Quit the habit now before you do years of difficult to reverse/irreversable damage to your body/physical health, among the endless slew of emotional/social/family issues it can cause you.

I'm not kidding, stop. Get help if you need it, but one way or the other, knock it off. It's not worth it and anyone who tells you otherwise is full of cope themselves.

If you're drinking regularly and think that having only three drinks is cutting back, then you likely have a problem.

Can you go a week without drinking? If that seems like it would be a problem then that should tell you a lot.

You can drink as much as you like but if it starts affecting your life and being an issue then you should address it.

You dont have to meet a certain predetermined threshold in order to qualify as an alcoholic.

Say for example you you start drinking a bit too much every time and being a dick to everyone. You wake up full of regret but you do it again the next day. That would be an issue that needs to be addressed.

If you get drunk on the weekends , have fun and thats it. no big deal.

Two types:

Classic alcoholic: feels strong urges to drink, tends to drink too often, tends to drink too much

Hidden type: those who have no real urge to drink but when they do drink, they have issues stopping, often end up stupid drunk unintentionally

You don't sound like either, just a lightweight bitch who can't hold it.

Technically there's a verifiable definition but I like your interpretation more.

stick to a hashish life, no problems

stick to a hashish life, no problems

WFE - BUT ALSO:

I drink everyday. Sometimes casually, sometimes get pretty buzzed. Has zero or very little effect on my daily life, can and have stopped for over a week but out of sheer boredom go back to hitting the sauce.

Dont crave it, just get really bored and don't have readily available activities and it makes ripping COD with the boys a little more entertaining

Ordinarily, this would be hashish life as referenced above, but currently have to do drug testing for career stuff and drink instead....

Am I an alcoholic? or just a bored retard? Starting to get a little soft and my skin isn't too great, so im leaning towards a booze bag, curious this misc's opine.

Never drink to LEGIT excess, just drink to the point where maybe im a little louder, but still coherent speaking clearly stand up fine etc.

you can either stop/dramatically change the amount for a compelling reason or you can't

drinking is fun and produces endless gals for me, but sometimes i get in too deep so i take some number of months off

last drink was mid august and i've dropped like 25lbs and i'm gonna drop another 20 or so

should be diced for real this time hehe and it will have been 6 months with nary a sip srs

if you can't do that even for a cut, you got a problem

if you can, you're probably fine

per day or once in a while?

[ZeGermans94]

I just took 3 shots of Tequila about to watch some more World Cup.


No I don't think you're an Alcoholic.

[Jayl12345]

I think it's open to interpretation.

My father was a bonified alcoholic. He was drinking box wine(thrifty) and we clocked it at around 5-6 bottles a day before he died of literal liver failure.

I happen to enjoy a night out with friends, maybe 2 or 3 days a week, but I will never drink on my own out of boredom or desire. My father hid it and slowly poisoned himself. He was literally diagnosed by a Dr with wet brain(google it) and gave up drinking for 6 months and told if he started again it would probably kill him. He did anyways.

THAT is an alcoholic.

This lol

I just stop when I want to for however long I want

I don’t get the concept of being addicted or having a problem with alcohol

If I want to drink I’ll drink, if I don’t want to I won’t lol so simple
