I think an alcoholic is defined as a person who is controlled by alcohol. If this description fits you, then you are most likely an alcoholic. Many people drink a glass of wine with their dinner, or have a drink or two every night and are not alcoholic.

alcoholism is an addiction as well as drugs but the difference is that alcohol is legal. Now if you like to drink because you want to than i think its ok, maybe not everyday are you sure you drink EVERYDAY? that sounds a little too much but now if you feel like you need to drink everyday than you are an alcoholic. there is a difference between wanting and needing. Do you want to drink or do you need to drink????

Have you ever tried to stop or cut down on your drinking? If you're worried about it, don't drink every day. If you can't do this, you probably are an alcoholic.

The very simple answer is this: does the alcohol consumption generate a problem in ANY area of your life? If the answer is yes, then you might be. You must answer the question honestly. You can also ask yourself this question as it relates to your drinking: Do normal drinkers do this? Look at your actions and ask yourself that question. Do normal drinkers "cover up" their drinking? They have no need to. Or you can ask yourself this question: Have you EVER lied about your drinking? If the answer is yes, you should look seriously at your drinking.

I think you just like a drink. An alcoholic drinks too much. Well, that explains if you drink too much everyday.

Depends, a beer or glass of wine a day, not an alcoholic, a 30 pack of beer a day however, and you are an alcoholic.

depends on how much you drink everyday and if thats all you think about is getting drunk. Do you have to drink a beer in the morning to feel better, stop the shakes, do you get irritable when you dont drink?

If its a glass of wine no
But if its the whole bottle more than likely
As my friends always say were not alcoholics because we don't go to meetings
