Determining whether or not someone is an alcoholic is not a matter of a simple formula; someone could have one drink a day and be an alcoholic, while someone else could drink six glasses of wine in an evening and not be considered an alcoholic. Alcoholism is a very complex disease, and a diagnosis of alcoholism relies on several symptoms and factors which are considered together, ranging from a genetic predisposition to alcoholism to the drinking habits of the patient. If you are concerned that someone you know may be developing an alcohol dependence, you should be aware that many people with alcohol abuse and dependence issues are in denial, so you should approach this person carefully about the issue.

TSC, why am I thinking you're about as concerned about drinking as you are about repenting? ;)

Unless you, your wife or your doctor has an issue with the amount you drink, don't worry about it. Cheers! [~]D

I would say thats fine although I don't drink. If a person spends hours a day in a bar more than likely has a problem. The guy in the cartoon has a problem.....lol

No, you are not an alcoholic unless you can't do without them if you choose to give drinking a miss sometimes.

Whether it's affecting your health depends on the units you drink.

The suggested safe limit is 21 per week for men and 14 for women.

More than 12 beers a day is not a good sign. AA should be in your future. Mondays I usually pound a few, 10-12 beers. I spend most weekends at the track so no drinking after Thursday. Fast cars and booze never mix.
