Ok, well, alcoholism is a very strong thing in one side of my family; my dad, grandfather, and all of my aunties and uncles bar one have or have had seriously struggled with alcoholism; and I'm kind of worried that I may fall into the same thing, because I am starting to realize I drink far too much; and most of it's by myself, and I'm 19. So, I'm not stupid, I do realize this isn't exactly normal. Like for example, I think it was the other day I kind of had an 'epiphany' of sorts; I have drank an awful lot this week, and the one day this week without it, I was craving it really badly. Soooo..

But, is it 'possible' to find a balance, or will it be a case of having to avoid it altogether? I don't think that is necessary, but I'm just asking for opinions on the whole situation.

Thanks
Deolal M - *sigh* You should do your homework instead of flaunting your ignorance and coming across as a retard.

no one is genetically pron ed to anything.

Some people are more susceptible to addiction then others, the one enormous advantage you seem to have is that you are aware of the problem. If you are prone to alcoholism and you don't want to get sucked in, I think your best option is to stop drinking while you can.

hey bro, this is kind of ironic. I have the same problem, Im 19, alcoholism on one side of the family etc. The first girl i ever loved broke up with me and i felt so much better when i drank but i started to do it so much it became a problem so to solve my problem i treated alcohol kind of like a diet. You need to cut out alto of the bad stuff and if you feel you did a good job then you can treat yourself. I try to stick to birthdays, holidays, and i try not to drink more then twice a month, that's how i worked it, good luck man.
