I think it does not matter if you are an alcoholic or not. What matters is if the drinking causes you problems—are there negative consequences? Getting falling down drunk could cause problems—maybe make you do and say things you would not normally do or say. Binge drinking can also be dangerous. I am not a professional, but I think over time, abusing alcohol just gets worse—the consequences become more severe. Maybe now is a good time to address the issue—especially if it is bothering you. The only solution I can think of is abstinence. Try stopping and see what happens—the booze will always be there if you change your mind.

I have found that I like being sober—at first it was difficult and I thought I’d never make it—but now, I really like being in control of my life…and I have learned how to have fun without booze. Although, in the end, drinking was rarely fun—it was something I had to do to survive—or so I thought. Today, I am extremely grateful for my sobriety.
