Whats considered an alchoholic? 3-6 beers a night and a shot of liquor?!
Answers: If you have to have it every night in order to "relax" then yes, you are! If you feel crappy if you don't drink and angry or sad then yes you are, if you have to be asking this you are probably in denial. OMG I went through exactly the same thing, his dad and g-pa were drunks, needless to say he became one and cheated and I left him, he doesn't pay support or see his kids, but maybe I stopped my son from following the cycle! Don't back down on your beliefs!
alcoholics go to meetings, that sounds like a drunk.
if you have that one night and not all the time
then you are not a alchoholic but if you do
alot and all the time and use alchohal
to solve your problems then yeah you are
alocholism is a progressive disease, wait a few years when the doctors tell you your liver is not doing well
I think being considered an alcoholic depends on why you drink, not necessarily how much you drink. If you can't function without drinking, or if you can't go out without getting trashed, you have a problem...
that sounds like it to me--ugru
Yep, your right he's an alcoholic.
does his drinking interfer ith his life like is he going to work drunk (which with him being a barber using blades by peoples throats that could be dangerous), does he drive drunk these among others are tell tale signs they have meetings for families of alcoholics go to one of those and get those peoples inputs
i would say habitually drinking enough to get a buzz every night is too much. if you don't feel comfortable confronting him, i suggest making it less accessible. limit how much alcohol you keep around the house. if he's just drinking out of habit because it's there, that might make him cut back. if he gets upset about it or insists on going out to get more, that'll be a sign that he's drinking out of dependency -- a clear addiction problem.
