Really?? It's a highly addictive drug so it's not that bizarre...I find it so bizarre that people have to make an effort not to drink
There is a big sliding scale of 'problems with alcohol' so labels like 'alcoholic' are often not helpful as that label comes with a whole heap of assumptions and stereotypes and thoughts of what makes someone a 'proper alcoholic'Not now but earlier this year, I don't want to put that label on myself as it is a serious problem and not to be taken lightly. It was certainly becoming a habit, and as someone whose friends love to drink, it can be the social pressure that can make you drink so much.
I never committed, hubby did and has had a drink every night since Thursday 2ndI'm not , my boyfriend is but I give it 2 weeks max , that's how long he lasted for go sober for October
When you say on the verge of alcoholism , how much are you drinking because, and I’m saying this with kindness , if you are at that point , staying dry in January is the least of your worries.No but I'm cutting down. I'm only 19 and have been on the verge of becoming an alcoholic. So far I've not drank since New Years Day...I'm meant to be going on a night out on the 13th so trying to stay sober till then. It's so hard though and I know thats bad to say that
There are a lot of people who wish it could be easy to decline a drink but sadly it isn’t the case.I find it so bizarre that people have to make an effort not to drink
I can see why you’re struggling, that would test any of us . You can only give it your best shot but starting a new job is a good incentive to avoid the wine for a week or two at least , good luck!Ah thanks! My friends are just too social and I live in a house share with 6 people that all LOVE a drink so I’m being super antisocial and avoiding them ... I think I need to get a hobby
