I don't think I'm an alcoholic, my theripist gives me this look like "are you kidding?" when I tell her that. I drink every night but I can stop. Everything that says if your an alcohlic says that they have an alllergic action to alcohol and can't stop. So if I get to say if I am one then I'm not. Right only I get to say if I am or not.

I went to an AA meeting and some of the things sounded familiar. But when people start talking about that once they start drinking they have no control, I am lost, then I think that I am not an alcoholic. I just have a drinking problem. I only drink a third to a half of a fifth a day, usually a third. From what I hear alcoholics cannot stop after they start drinking. I do need help to stop drinking though, I cant stop. I wake up in the morning and say I have to stop drinking, but the next night it is a stuggle. Every day it is a tug of war- to drink or not to drink- .
