Am I An Alcoholic?

I will be moving next week and I have started to clean out a lot of my crap. In doing so, I came across a butt load of receipts I saved for some reason or another and noticed a pattern in them.

Grocery Store, Bar, Bar, Convenient Store, Bar, Grocery Store, Bar, Bar, Fast Food, Grocery Store, Bar… and the list continues with mostly grocery store and bar receipts.

This got me thinking, “Holy Sh#t! Everything on these receipts includes purchasing liquor (except the fast food receipt). Am I an Alcoholic?!?”

First thing I said in my head was, “NO!” but then I thought, WOW that’s denial, which I believe is what every alcoholic says. Then I thought, “Should I chill out on the drinking?” “Do I need to seek help?”"Could I really be an Alcoholic?”

As I pondered this notion I grabbed a cold one and then came to my senses! “I’m German, Polish, Ukrainian and Czech!” I was made to fcukin’ drank this much.

Usually I drink only two nights a week but when I get out I go big. Lately however, I have noticed myself drinking about four nights out of the week. Think I may need to slow down cause all of my savings is going directly into my drinking fund, which the interest sucks on I must say!

How many nights a week do you consume alcohol?

I would really like to see what the average is.

wUrd!

    i am still asking myself this question with many hours of reflection. I drink quite often, sometimes for celebration and often just to celebrate the weekend. It has only become a problem lately with my husband of 4 years, asking why I drink so much? (He drinks too but is always in bed first) I don’t know why I drink more than him except that I know I can and I feel more confident and am awake much later than he is. Does this make me an alcoholic when we drink much the same amount but he just drinks his quicker and falls asleep faster?
