I get drunk every weekend. am I an alcoholic?

I'm thinking Arbys.

I dunno about your alcoholism though.

Does it affect your life negatively?

how drunk do u get?

How long do you think you can go without getting drunk?

How many times a day do you get drunk?

Do you drink when you're not supposed to?

I meant every weekend. I have gone weekends without doing it, but.. I do look forward to it. It really doesnt effect my life in a negative way. I just enjoy the feeling. Diablo112688

I honestly dont think so. What do you think? Diablo112688

Wait wait wait wait wait.... so you mean there is a NOT being drunk?

The first sign of an alcoholic is denying your an alcoholic....Lemon-Demon35

but i don't drink at all! so i must not be an alcoholic... oh noes! I'm denying it, so im now an alcoholic... might as well get a drink

"Every day" and "every weekend" are incredibly hard to mix up.

No, you're not an alcoholic, but it isn't wise to get drunk at all. . .ever.

I was thinking about something else and I typed it without noticing.

You're not an alcoholic, I do the EXACT same thing as you and I love the feeling.

Can you wake up in the morning without needing a drink?

If you can't go without a drink, than you're an alcoholic...

it dosent matter...u had sex with ur mum and i raped her eyeballs out...she then procedded to feel my penis...and i raped the body of your dead grannyUber-PWNAGE

The fact that you're not sure whether or not you're an alcoholic would lead me to believe that you are indeed an alcoholic.SmashBrosLegend

If he really needed it, he'd drink everyday. Everyone can think "oh noes what would I do if I dont get drunk this week end?" without being an alcoholic. It may be a step towards becoming an alcoholic.

Well its just so hard to answer the question. I am not really trying to defend myself.. I am not sure myself. I believe I could never do it again and be fine.. but I am not sure. I am sure that I dont want to stop though. I see it as eating your favorite meal regularly..or something. You dig?Diablo112688

If your favorite meal is harmful, and you know it is harmful, but you keep eating it, you may or may not have an addiction to it.

See a therapist.

I won't recommend a therapist, but I still say your on the road to being an alcoholic.

Drinking every weekend is one thing, drinking to get drunk is alcohol abuse

Ok, well just go without it for a month or something. If you can do that no problem, then you're fine.

Well in defining this the health side effects are irrelevant. no?

Well I drink to get drunk because I enjoy being fully drunk. I dont pass out or anything.. I know my limit. I honestly mostly drink out of enjoyment.

ask yourself this.

are you finding yourself craving alcohol as the weekend approaches?

has it caused any issues with your personal relationships and or professional life.

If you drink solely to get drunk, then yes, you're an alcoholic.Canvas_Of_Flesh

Thats absolutely not true. Not even close. That statement actually has no basis in reality, whatsoever.

Sorry for the over enthusiastic response, you just don't run across such blatantly wrong statements that often.

depends how much you consume. If you're drinking alot you're binge drinking, basically means to my understanding(err took bio 2 years ago), that you don't drink every day, but you drink large amounts at one time, then go days, even weeks without drinking, then drink large amounts again. if your binge drinking then your destroying your liver.

Uh, that's what I do and I don't see how I am destroying my liver. Getting drunk isn't that bad for your health, you just don't feel so well when you wake up the next day. If you do get drunk everyday, your liver will deteriorate but what's the point of drinking if you're not even getting drunk?

If your favorite meal is harmful, and you know it is harmful, but you keep eating it, you may or may not have an addiction to it.

Holy hell. I'm addicted to McDonalds, Wendy's, Burger King, my school's cafeteria food, Mexican food, Chinese food, American food, Doritos, nachos, cookies, Cheetos, Pringles, pop corn, butter, margarine, meat that has been raised on factory farms, Tylenol, most prescription drugs, tap water, macaroni and cheese, soda, coffee, energy drinks, other junk foods, alcohol, weed, cigarettes, video games, watching tv, the computer, talking on my phone, riding my bike, driving my car, sitting for too long, taking a piss and forgetting to wash my hands, going to the restroom in public bathrooms, being around sick people, going to the hospital, and pretty much any other activity that cause slight to severe adverse health effects! I know the risks but keep on doing them!

Thanks for the warning! I'm calling my therapist right this second.
