It's not how much you drink or how often you drink it's what happens everytime you drink is what the original AA book says and I believe that is probably right.

Perhaps you have x number of drinks everyday or that many everyday but what happens every time? Do you have a history of DUI arrests,family or financial problems,problems with the rest of society,or personal problems with d drinkerepression that may me becuase of your drinking? If you drink alot and do not have these you are probably just a heavy drinker but not an alcoholic but you are at real risk of becoming one,

How many of you guys are over 30? Just curious, because at some point the side effects will kick in hard...

Reminds me of an interview I had while getting a periodic investigation on a security clearance....The investigator told me that he could tell that I didn't have a drinking problem just by looking at me.

He stated that the hard drinkers were easy to spot.

I don't think you would think I drink much by looking at me.

Yes, that's because you're 19.

I was in my late 30s at the time. If you are a hard drinker for that amount of time, it certainly will take it's toll on you.

I remember my father commenting on his brother (my uncle) and stating that "his nose is redder." Good ol' Uncle Norman eventually gave up his beer when his doctor told him that he was going to die if he didn't.

Substance abuse takes it's toll on a body after awhile. Hell, look at Lindsay Lohan now. She looks like she has aged 10 years in the last 18 months.

Whatever, if it burns out quick, no big loss. Not like there's any realistic long term plans.

You're mistaken about that, but it will probably be at least another 20 years before you realize it.
