Answer 1

If you're drinking that amount every day it is too much. If you keep up that pace your liver is going to pay the price, especially since antidepressants are in the mix. (and that's only one of the detrimental side effects of constantly poisoning your body with alcohol)
Also, many antidepressants have a warning to young adults about a possible risk of "suicidal thoughts", (read your meds literature), and since alcohol is a depressant you're increasing that risk during a drinking binge.
Do your own research on drinking & the body, and/or ask your doctor about it if you really are worried about your drinking. If you don't mind dying young then don't worry about it.

EDIT:
If you were not on antidepressants your body might be able to handle a bi-monthly binge, but these types of drugs are already stressing the internal organs. Even over-the-counter meds can be very harmful if taken too often. (I had kidney problems because of taking too many pain pills every day)
Just be careful, smart, take care of your body and you'll be ok. ;)

Answer 2

Hello dear! Yes, yes, yes! You are to young! I know what I am talking about, and I really don`t wanna be a party-stopper or anything by saying this. Well, I guess it is OK to party once a month in your age, but anything more ften than that is dangerous. Girls are even more in the danger zone here, but boys that age should max drink twice a month. This may sound stupid and like I am an old sad man, but I am not. I am actually very happy to be alive today. I started to drink when I was 15-16. when I was 19 my liver had been damaged. 26 years after that, I stopped. I was a happy young lad, but one party was soon taken over by the next party. Somewhere along the line the other folks got married, moved away, and the like but by then I and some others was hooked on booze big time. I mean I started to think about drinking the next day before I got to bed. I lost my family, my gf, my (sober) friends, my job, my car, everything I ever owned. Young people believe they are immortal, they believe they know it all and that older people just say this sh*t just to take all that is fun out of your lifes. But hey, we have been young to, and some of us wanna share some of our bad experiences with the youth so they don`t have to do them! I have nothing against a good party, but when your body is still growing, you should be careful. I am 46 now, and have a great life and family by my own. But I was darn lucky as I was rescued by an angel of a woman who showed me that there is a life worth living even if you don`t get drunk at 9 am every day. Most of the guys I hang out with wasn`t that lucky I am sad to say. Some died by alcohol/driving, some died by heroin overdose. some died because the heart just stopped after years with drugs and booze. And yes, if you drink a lot, drugs will be there around you, and as so many drunk people have done before, when their bottles get empty and their craving for more gets to high, they ask for a hit, or what ever, and already the first time, many get addicted. I have seen people do sh*t I don`t even wanna describe to get their fix. I don`t wanna see anyone in a situation like that ever i my life. I am sorry for my preaching, but you know I had to, I am not telling you to never drink OK, just don`t do it every week, and be aware if you feel the urge to drink more often, because then it`s magic have already begun to work and the work it does, is just one singel thing, it wants you to drink even more. By the way, read the book; King Alcohol by Jack London! Happy holidays, good luck, peace and love from Norway
