Do you consider it okay to binge drink once a week ?
In the past I’ve had the ropey Sunday morning and 3 day midweek benders no holiday no reason just to get away from it all. My drinking in the past became like that due to mental illness it became an unhealthy coping mechanism. Now in 2025 I do not drink like that anymore. I’m still mentally ill with OCD and anxiety but I have other ways to cope alcohol is no longer an option on some random Thuesday morning, It is still something I greatly enjoy on a Saturday night. When I drink on a Saturday it’s a session which is for me anyway binge drinking but I’m well able to not drink again for another week after it. Is it problematic for my health to binge drink once a week. I don’t count my drinks but a rough guess could range from anything from 8 to 12 sometimes more the odd time less. I usually just drink beer or cider sometimes spirits or wine in a session but not that much. My question is, is it okay for your health to binge drink once a week.
