Do you not have a hobby, exercise, more to life than 4 cans a night

I get up at 6am to go for a half hour jog or cycle before getting ready for work, i watch tv and play xbox. Don't get me wrong, i hold a job and have friends, i won't put off a social event to stay at home or whatever, but if i'm not doing anything then i'll sink a few cans in the evening while scowering web forums before bed at 12, helps me get to sleep.

I'm probably an alcoholic, i have 4 cans a night and way more a the weekend, but there isn't a chance of me stopping. I like it, what's the problem. I'll just die from liver failure, will be better than slowly watching the world as i know it collapse around me.

I understand mate, I'm on 2 in the morning and 4 a night, been like that for around 4 years now, although I am seeking help they aren't much good, I've at least been able to keep it at that level though so that's something I suppose.

You need help if you need alcohol to got to sleep.
 
I have a feeling Dylan was mocking when he said it but it rings true to me tbh,
"It levels my head and eases my mind,
i just walk along and stroll and sing,
i see better days and i do better things".
 
For me, an alcoholic is someone with a dependancy on alcohol. Any amount - if losing that amount means you cannot function normally then you have a problem IMO.

I have friends that I would consider borderline because if you suggest going out but still having a good time without drinking alcohol they think you're utterly retarded. If you then suggest to them that they should give it a go they get really nasty about it and berate you for "trying to control their lives" - it's just a suggestion, after all.
 
Why don't You have some "whine" with your beer, seriously. 8 cans for two days a week. Seriously.
Try telling that to 11 cans of stella a night dude, and tbh he was just as bad!
