I thought this a good thread idea.

Do you drink too much? if So why?



I'm wasted now (keep having to retype), I don't drimk often, jurt sometimes. Depression tbh.

I think I do. Why, maybe it is genes, maybe I like beer to much, maybe it oddly enough helps me do html better. Maybe, and I really think this is the biggest part, I need someone to personally tell me I drink to much. Really didn't start drinking much until after my ex wife tol me she wanted a divorce. Okay so I don't go out to the bars and get wasted, have been out to the bars in months now but I have sucked down a few beers tonight already. I won't drink and drive though, so at least there is something.

I'm anti-alcoholic. Don't like the taste of it. I don't even drink champaign on new year's eve.

Oh goody, a chance to paraphrase W.C. Fields:

I always keep a bottle of Scotch around in case of snake bite. I also keep a small snake.

LOL @ Rasczak!

I've never drank, never will.

I don't drink heavily on a regular basis, I still drink enough that it's noticeable. Whatever, I'm in college it's not on the top of my head right now. Not a big fan of liquor, but give me a 12 pack and I'll go to town.

not drinking

I drink the occasional can of cider but thats about it - other than a random night out where I'll have a few and become silly.

my friends thinks that i drink too little

Although I myself do not drink, nor am I against anyone that does so, I was given the opportunity in a personal sense to see how at times it can be a humorous matter, bring love back and then tear it all to hell again, and sometimes just show how cruel others can be, so with that i've witnessed enough to know, I don't want what it has to offer. However, there are times when i really really wish i had a shot of one thing or another, for instance, Limoncello, YUMMMMMMMMMMYYYYYY................

I'm not 100% sure where to put my vote. I don't drink often, but when I do, it is with the intention of getting D-R-U-N-K. I also usually do so alone. Well, does IRC count as alone? I have the logs to show for it too. Seems I become a vowel-challenged drunk.
I can and do drink in moderation/socially as well. But, once again, not bloody often. Think New Year's/Mom's b-day, my b-day, special dinners.

So I dunno... I'm a rare binge drinker, with moderation capabilities?

I don't drink. Sometimes I might have a glass of wine at dinner, or a few cocktails at a party, but that's about the extent of it.

once every few weeks ... burp ... is that too much ?

Do you mean in general or per time you drink?

I would vote no. One because I am currently pregnant and don't drink at the moment and two because I am too much of a forward planner I get to two drinks and think about any possibility of a hang over and change to water

I enjoy one or two glasses of wine a couple of times a week. They say it is good for me.

I drink very seldom but when I do it's two pints of Murphys.

Murphys

i probably drink too much, but i don't care. i like it.

I like good wine, and Belgian beers. I cannot drink too much. Two glasses and I roll under the table. Long time ago, I drank to much for my metabolism, and did not like the feeling at all. It was like suffocating.

MMhhh? What exactly is the definition of too much? I only drink when I'm happy, stressed, content, in social situations or alone!LOL

I drink, but I wouldn't say I drink too much, I've done the whole drink to get really wasted thing before, but waking up the next day and not remembering what you did the night before sucks.
Now I drink just to enjoy a drink really, if I have a drink it's normally only 1 or 2 glasses of bourbon and coke.
On some occasions (new years, etc) I drink more, but not enough to end up with a huge hangover or anything.
