I'm pretty sure you are legally drunk after 5.something % for females and 8. something for males. It takes your body about two hours to get rid of one serving of alcohol. A serving is usually a shot of whiquer, small glass of wine, or a bottle of regular beer. If you consume over a serving over 4 times a week, than you are considered a major alcoholic, but if you drink at all, some people still call you an alcoholic. Thank god for health class, otherwise, how would a 14 year old know this? haha

Well being a recovering addict/alcoholic myself I can tell you that only you can answer that question. No one else can tell you that you are an alcoholic or not. But ask yourself some questions. Does it interfere with your day to day life? Do you want to drink less but can't seem to slow down? Do you find that when you start drinking you don't stop until you are drunk? These are just a few questions that may help YOU determine if drinking has become a problem for you. If you think you are then try these websites:

Hope I've been able to help you!

Drinking to get drunk is one sign that your an alcoholic. If you find yourself getting ripped on alcohol often and it is affecting any part of your personal life, then you may be on the road to alcoholism which is a disease that will stay with you the rest of your life. I glanced at some of the more serious answers on your question.....some of these people have some good answers. Alcohol attacks everyone differently.....are you winning or losing from those attacks? We are all different so you really have to look at some different answers.

When you need to drink every single night, when you drink to take your mind off of problems or when you wake and open up a can of beer. its heretitary so there is another sign. alcoholism runs strong in my family and if youve seen an alcoholic then you know what one is. also too much to drink is when your slurring, stumbling, and or passing out even throwing up is a sign youve had way too much to drink

See the DSM-IV for a definition of alcohol addiction.
