Question:

I drink everyday sometimes a fifth some days a pint and sometimes 1 beer...?

I don't have any problems with it like I never miss work or get in fights with my family, leagal problems ect. Do you think this means I'm an alcoholic?


Answers:

Trouble is, you may not think that you are an alchohlic, but there are other parts to the fallout:

1. Is your family 'suffering' because you are spending ten to fifteen dollars a day on drink?
2. Is your output at work LESS than the best because you feel somewhat hungover?
3. Can you honestly say that you NEVER drive even under the teeniest bit of drunkenness?
4. Is there ANYone who says "I wish you did not drink so much"?
5. Even if your liver is whole and hearty NOW, in time that much alcohol in your system compromises your liver function

So you see, Ron, this is not a problem in isolation. There is a lot more to this than just you yourself and you. You live with and around others, and recreational drinking is fine. Everyday drinking is probably NOT fine.

Ask your relatives "Do I drink too much?" If they say YES, then go and get help and the best place is AA.
