Did you stop because you were addicted then? If so, you are an inspriation and should be very proud.

So, are children of alcoholics the same as children of parents who drink everyday? I think theres a difference between alcholism and drinking everyday. But i do agree with your point.

My friends mother is an alcoholic and its so hard to be her friends because she is very down and low. She has a roof over her head, earns enough money, but still finds things to moan about. Do you think this is due to being bought up within a household thats fueled by alcohol?

I definitely couldn't drink alcohol on a nightly basis. The last time I drank two nights in a row I was sick straight after my first drink

I used to drink a good few times a week when I was 18 because the whole clubbing thing was new to me, since 2014 I haven't that much, but I am starting to more lately.

Yes I was alcohol dependent, I needed to drink everyday, that is what alcoholism is Conzors
It is a depressant so I can see why her mood would be low, you can still function yet there are long term physical and mental health issues associated as as well as disruptions to 'normal' family life.
I used to kid myself it didn't have an impact, I was lying to myself.
Like you I fell into the glass, 2 glass, half a bottle, oh may as well finish this quite easily.

I know what alcoholism is but you weren't clear to if you drank everyday or if you were dependent, sorry.

Thats such an achievement! Well done.

I dont feel dependant on alcohol though, its just a routine to have a drink but i dont get drunk.

I drink occasionally but not every night and I can quite happily go without. I went through a phase when I was at uni where I drank a LOT but it was more of a social thing, I've never really felt the need for it.

Well that's good, but beware little warning signs. going out to the shop for a drink if the weather is awful, or you're tired and really could just do with going to bed, or rushing back from somewhere so you don't miss the local shop closing, or having a bevvy before you go out making sure there's some for when you get back too, or you feel jittery at the though of having a night off it, starting a second bottle because you're happy/sad/celebrating/not celebrating.
I does creep up on you, just be aware

Nope. I haven't drank for about 2 months now, first time will be at my wedding on Saturday (then probably more on honeymoon afterwards...)

We have had a bottle of Asti in the fridge for like 4 months now too

I drink alcohol on nights out, on a date, or a cheeky few with friends in a pub. I dont really drink casually at home much - to be healthier.

I'm not old enough to drink legally but my mum let's me drink on the weekend with her if she has wine. Other than that I only drink at house party's.

Actually the person in my family who drinks the most is my Nana, she drinks whiskey and lemonade every night

Tonight i have gone through a whole bottle of pink moscato barefoot, as it was reduced BY ONLY 50p to £5.50. My mind told me "It's on offer, so get it and save it for a good night" - a few hours later after my evening cigerette i decided to open it and have a glass only to find that I a teaspoon left (doesnt count as the whole bottle, right?)

So my question to you is, Do you have a drink or twelve every night, or do you just save it for the weekends or special occasions? If you do, is is part of your routine? Do you fancy it? Do you feel like you need it?

Answer below.

Ciao xxxx

..Conzors, always great to see your lovely face on the forum......

....hmmmm, you're asking these question, so maybe you're over-thinking or maybe you have concerns, yourself...are consciously thinking about your alcohol/questioning it...
