    Drunk for the most of the month of December.

    I'd say I'm an alcoholic.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,158 ✭✭✭✭Berty


    I went out once in December and before that the last time I had a drink was back in September. I have not drank over the Christmas yet and I do not think I will, not even for New Years.

    My dad is actually an alcoholic so I dont really want to head down that route. 1 kidney down and still drinking nearly every single day. :mad: Best of luck, tell me how George Best is. :D

    I'm not an alcoholic... but I could be one... if I drank more... maybe in the future... I'd say I could be a pretty good one


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,778 ✭✭✭✭Kold


    Nope, not an alcoholic. If away from friends I won't drink. I really only do it for the social aspect.

    I like to vary my drug of choice.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,893 ✭✭✭Davidius


    I don't drink so I should hope not.

    I drink practically every night. But because I dont drink in the daytime and it doesnt affect my life i.e i still get up at 7am do whatever needs doing then no i'm not an alcoholic. But I'm heading in the right direction.

    Yeah, I used to wonder whether someone who has a few beers or a couple of glasses of wine every night has a problem... but then I got to know a guy who would have two or three bottles of wine a night, would regularly ring in sick - not just due to a hangover but in order to stay at home drinking all day... and if he was off/"sick" he would start drinking at breakfast time and not stop til he went to bed. So Trinity, once you don't veer beyond what you're doing, you won't have a problem. Perhaps an unnecessary habit though...

    I only drink when I go out (which is one or two nights a week) but I hoover the drink back and sometimes get into a seriously pissed state.

    Very bad habit! Its starts off 2 bottles of beer a night and over the xmas season its now upped to a 1.5 litre bottle a night (fancy one in the shape of a champagne bottle) so me reckons its time to stop!!

    I used to drink only when i went out but now i dont go out and its so relaxing after a long day to kick back with a beer. Its definately habit.

    how have the lines not been said yet. EDIT: Beaten to it!

    I'm not an alcoholic, alcoholics go to meetings.

    I'm not an alcoholic, alcoholics have class, I'm a f**king drunk
    Not an Alcoholic, as i don't depend on Alcohol but i'm a definitely a binge Drinker.
    The government call over 4 drinks "binge drinking", I reckon most people are binge drinkers.
    You are drunk Sir Winston, you are disgustingly drunk'. 'Yes, Mrs. Braddock, I am drunk. But you, Mrs. Braddock are ugly, and disgustingly fat. But, tomorrow morning, I, Winston Churchill will be sober'.

    Dead right, bloody meetings, they'd drive you to drink.

    I was on the road to becoming an alcoholic. Spending about 300 squid on drink within 2 nights. Then I'd go to parties where there is drink and I don't have to spend anything.
    I'm a student so it's allowed but... I've kinda gotten sick of the taste of alcohol so I'm stopping it for now... I'm only drinking about 150 quids of drink a week.

    I feel much better in health.
