I drink on occasion but I was raised by an alcoholic mother that was raised by alcoholic parents. I had a problem with alcohol as a teen and I knew I wouldn't put my kids through that, but sometimes I think I might have handled some things better had I been drinking.
With that said, my husband is an alcoholic even if he won't admit it and I try not to nag him because hello?? He puts up with me, right? And he doesn't like taking medication for his issues which he only addressed once since we found his parents murdered 12 years ago....Just be safe whatever you do, okay??
