Question: Am I an alcoholic? I need your honest opinion.?
I do go every once and a while without drinking and don't "jones" about it. I just like to unwind after dinner. I don't start until around 8pm so it's not like I drink in the middle of the day.

No I don't think you're an alcoholic - you're in a habit and the drinking of wine or beer seems to de-stress you. It's the same sort of thing when people comfort eat. It won't do you any harm if you have a couple of glasses of wine say 4 times a week and give your liver a rest the other 3 days. On these days drink something else that's not alcoholic - it takes 21 days to break a habit so if you can keep it up for a few weeks then this will be your new habit and you can still have a drink on the other nights.
If you started to do some exercise on these nights you'd also get a high from the endorphins released - try it!! Best of luck
I don't think you are an alcoholic. You aren't drinking excessive amounts of alcohol. I personally know alcoholics and they will only drink beer or wine. Now, if you start drinking more often, then I would have to say you have a mild case of alcoholism but for now, you're good. Take care!
I don't think so at all.
An alcoholic can't function without it - starts the day with a drink and tops up through the day.
You are using it to relax and wine is good for us in such moderation.
If you have to ask yourself this, then maybe. Try not drinking for a day, and see how you react to that, mentally and physically. Good luck.
You are not an alcoholic but just a plain moderate drinker.
If you increase the amounts you could certainly develop into an alcoholic.
