Do I have a problem with Alcohol?!


Question: Do I have a problem with Alcohol!?
I have always been the type of person who really appreciates a glass of wine, a martini or even a cocktail every now and then!. I usually have a glass of wine before I go to bed!. Recently my fiance has asked me to calm down on the drinking!. I hardly ever get drunk, maybe like once every 2 months (I'm 27 so I still have fun!)!. But It's not very common!. I just like to relax before I go to bed!. Sometimes I enjoy something to drink after a meal!. I understand that my fiance is concerned because his mother was an alcoholic!. But from what I understand, she would drink until she passed out on the floor! Every night! He's had to call the paramedics quite a few times to revive her!. I really don't think that me and his mother are in the same boat here!. But, Am I wrong!?!!? Should I not be drinking every day!?
Is a glass a wine every night too much!?
Do I have a problem!?
Is he just blowing this out of reality!?
if so, how do I assure him that I do not have a drinking problem!? Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
You're finance is just overly concerned because he has had to deal with his mother in the past and he must realize how hard that can be!. My mom has a glass of wine every night and she is FAR from being an alcoholic or to the point someone would say "you should stop drinking"!. Especially since you don't get drunk, it's not putting any harm to yourself or others!. Just do what you do and maybe your husband will come around and see that it's just for a nice "snack" and not to obliterate yourself!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

One glass a day I think is okay!. He is probably worried about it getting worse!. That you might start drinking 3 or 4 a day!. I would assure him that you are going to stay with 1 a day!. I don't think you have a problem unless you are totally dependant on it an can't do with out it!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

I don't think a glass of wine is a problem, but when you say you like to drink after meals, combine that with the wine and still getting sh*tfaced at 27 you have the workings for it!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.

I'M not sure you have a problem!. To me a sure way to tell is to not drink for a few days just to see what happens
Won't hurt to quit for a week!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

Well, the adult body can process one serving of alcohol (5 oz!. wine) every 24 hours!. If you have the drinks 24 hours apart and only one serving!. I don't think you'll have any long term damages to your liver, or etc!.

I don't think you have a problem!. Your fiance is just afraid because he saw his mom as an alcoholic, and doesn't want you to become one too, so he is blowing this out of proportion!. Just tell him that you think that he is too afraid of you drinking, and tell him that if he thinks you drink too much he can just tell you, and by being open he might see that it's just a glass of wine, and you are not going to become an alcoholic!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
