Depends… Is the person to told you this a doctor or psychologist? People who aren’t doctors tend to stereotype people that drink alone as alcoholic, but really alcoholism (and other forms of addiction) is more of a personality disorder than just drinking too much. ---

If you can stop drinking on your own and do not constantly think about gettin’ a snoot-full 24/7, then you _probably_ don’t have a drinking problem. Let me guess, this is from some **scare-tactic-counselor**. It’s their job to scare you straight and just like binge drinking in colleges…some can handle it, some can’t. They try to scare as many people as possible with trend analysis rather than the facts. Habitual drunkards are incapable of stopping themselves from drinking alcoholic beverages. Alcoholics go to meetings (as previously said). Therefore, alcoholics are a subset of drunks. If you tend to do stupid shit while drunk, that is another problem completely (lacking proper sensibility/assessment of “consumption versus lack of inhibition”). ---

About how many days a week do you drink? I used too drink 5-6 days a week, sometimes I would even find myself drinking for a week or 2 straight. I did that for about a year and a half and recently cut back too like 2-3 times a week. I feel completely different than when I drank almost everyday, I no longer fell like I need too drink everyday. ---

It is NOT how much you drink that makes you an alcoholic!!! How much has NOTHING to do with it! I have not smoked pot, or popped pills in over FOUR YEARS. Guess what? I’m still an addict!!! ---

it’s not whether you have one beer or one hundred… it’s whether you feel you need that beer to be in a good mood/function properly. there’s nothing wrong with drinking alone; maybe you like beer. ---
