do i drink to much?

Question

80 percent of nights 1 have a bottle of wine or 6 or 7 cans iam 19 is this 2 much

Answer 1

I have a bottle of wine most nights. I was wondering if it is too much but as long as your not feeling dodgy everyday, I reckon its not too bad but you are a bit young to be drinking that much. Try cutting back during the week and limiting it to a couple of medium glasses of wine or 2 or 3 cans.

Answer 2

If you need to ask then the answer would probably be yes. You obviously use alcohol to unwind - nothing wrong with that in moderation, just try to cut down to a couple of glasses of wine on a night (and try a few nights off as well) instead of a full bottle, or two cans of beer instead of 6 or 7. If you keep up this level of drinking, over time you will require more and more to get that 'buzz'. It can have an effect on your emotional health, (alcohol is a depressant), and your physical health - dehydration, lowered concentration, weight gain and lowered immune system.

Answer 3

You are much to young to be drinking so much. Nothing wrong with the odd tipple at weekends but getting hammered every night says you have a problem that needs to be addressed. At least you recogonise you are drinking to much and being so young you can do something about it now. If it carries on into your twenties you are in danger of becoming an alcoholic and the damage you do to your body cannot be undone. Why not get a hobby or take up a sport during the week and save your drinking like the rest of us for a Friday or Saturday night. Good luck mate xx

Answer 4

I think you already know it's too much. Maybe you're looking for someone to say it's o.k. I drank more than that at your age and I had a grand old time. I still drink, sometimes too much but I'm not an alcoholic. I suggest you stop drinking for 4 or 5 days and see if your mood really changes or if you find it difficult to not drink. If it does, consider gradually cutting down. I hardly think you have to give it up completely and start daily AA meetings! Good luck.

Answer 5

yep, you need to be down to half a bottle, or a bottle every few nights, or about 2 cans of beer if you drink every night.

I assume you don't drive at all in the mornings ? If you do, you'll still be over the limit.

Answer 6

Yes for a 19er it's definitively too much !!! try to limit and drink max.half botle of wine or 2-3 cans; that's enough for you.

Answer 7

yes, way too much, you have got issues. Nothing wrong with the wine but those cans are killers man.

Your whole lifestyle needs a make over, do not listen to those silly cows who will answer you on here. It's not the end of the world. BUT at 19 your brain is still developing and you shouldn't sozzle it with drink like this. A nice spliff would be better for you, and more sociable too.

Answer 8

2 beer a day is 1 2 many yes you drink too much get a job or some help before your body disowns you

Answer 9

Well in the United States it would be illegal for you to drink, as for the amount, I would say yes if it is what you require to make you happy. If you can drink less and get happy do so. If you can't you have a problem.

Answer 10

Enjoy it while you can, because after college it's called alcoholism.

Seriously, as long as it doesn't interfere with your life (and be dam* brutal evaluating yourself on this) you're fine. Just make sure to drink a lot of water during the day. Full 8 8oz glasses of it. Your liver will thank you in 30 years.
