I drink daily and I feel pretty healthy..?
I realize this might be a weird post on this sub but I’m posting it because I’ve been attempted to be coerced into quitting drinking by one of my family members and a friend..
Here’s something to note. I’m 28. I’ve drank heavily since I was 25ish but I’ve taken a few month long breaks. I also don’t view my alcoholism as an issue to my life
Now the day to day info. I don’t feel bad when I consume 6-10 or even 12 standard drinks the following day. Sure, I feel a bit tired towards the night hours and I feel less confident and a bit more depressed than I would if I didn’t drink, but that’s it. There’s no pain. There’s no doubt. There’s no regret. It’s just like this little bit of emotional dullness.
I regularly, have drank, a pretty large amount the past 3 years.. most of regular people would call me crazy if I said I consume a 375ml of Svedka, a tall boy white claw surge and a regular tall boy white claw almost daily for years but I do. And it honestly doesn’t do anything to me. It gets me drunk during my allocated hours, and then I wake up and go about my day.
I’m still in good shape, or at least good enough shape, I have more fat than I did in college but I also don’t value working out as much as I did. I also don’t have any crazy anxiety, mental issues or struggles. And I don’t feel any pain in my body. but I do get very weird nightmares anytime I don’t drink for a few days.. my one withdrawal symptom?
Am I in the very early stages of alcoholism? Or should I pipe down and stop trusting the opinions of others around me?
