Alcoholism!

Thought provoking post Diceman.

I think it's important to know thyself in regards to achohol.I've come to the conclusion I have a binge type personality.It's all or nothing for me.When I drink I rarely stop at 3 or 4.After years of practice it's amazing how 'messy' you can get without others really noticing.Therefore I try to limit my drinking to once or twice a week.It's all or nothing for me.It's the same when I was a cigarrete smoker.It was 2 packs a day or not at all.Eventually I had to opt for giving up all together.

It's a shame alchohol and ciggarrete are so bad for your health.Let's face it,they're very enjoyable.

i believe there a degrees of alcohol problems-
anyone who feels they need to drink in social situations has an acohol problem.

I don't know about that - I go on the wagon for 40 days a year. It is terrible: not only do you realise how boring your friends are but you come to a realisation that you yourself are boring. I went out with my wife for a dinner for two whilst on the wagon and she said "You are so boring when you don't drink!"
