Pints of what? Beer? I find it a little hard to believe you actually drink 12 pints of beer a day (a gallon and a half), unless you suffer from alcohol poisoning constantly and you visit the hospital like 3-4 times a week or more, in which case, you would also have to drink at the hospital. If this is the case, then yes, you are an alcoholic or perhaps even suicidal, and it's quite amazing that you are still coherent enough to post your question on Yahoo Answers. Maybe you should try cutting back to just half a gallon of beer a day.

Well - it could be 12 pints of water - couldn't it?
But if it's 12 pints of wine, or anything stronger, then probably you are. I think it depends on your attitude and whether or not you are actually addicted.
I was wondering the same thing about myself, although I don't drink 12 pints - but that's mainly because I drink red wine.
So tell me - am I an alcoholic? (Whoops - sorry - it's your question not mine, isn't it?!). Still, if I drink because I am stressed and can't relax without a drink, does that mean I'm an alchoholic?
Also, what will people think, whe they find out that I am also a Christian?
Hope this helps:>)
P,S. Thanks for the ideas for some questions of my own!

If it's 12 pints of alcohol, you're a Kennedy
Now if it's 12 pints of something else, you could be anything from a vampire to a porn star

Assuming you're talking about alcohol, if you drink 12 pints a day and can't live without them, yes you are an alcoholic. But say you aren't dependant of it, I think it doesn't technically qualify as alcoholism... still a very unhealthy habit though!!!

It depends on what you drink 12 pints of. If it's alcohol, then you're a DRUNKard

Alcoholism is dependant on addiction rather than the amount you drink. If you have withdrawal symptoms or feel you can't go without a drink, you are an alcoholic.

it really does depend on whether you depend on the alcohol to get you through the day. Can you go an entire 24 hours without having a alcholic beverage then you can probably class yourself as a non alcoholic.
