How often do you drink?

[CFH]

I need something to compare my own raging alcoholism with. Well, not really. It's more out of curiosity than anything else.

I work Mon-Fri, normal 9-5 (usually more) and drink every day that i don't have work the next day, and the occasional mid-week bit at a bar.. Before i had to work every day, i would drink 3-4 times throughout the week.. i mean, there really isn't anything to do around here besides going out to a bar.. if you go out to go bowling or something to that extent, you still pound pitchers of beer all night.. going to the movies is probably the only activity that doesn't involve alcohol, but i wouldn't go to the movies on a fri/sat night because i'd rather go out and be social.. i don't think this is anything out of the ordinary.

For someone your age I would say that it is relatively normal, when I was young I drank more than that - though admittedly I had a bit of a problem with those types of things back then.

I made this poll because for the last little while I've been drinking about once every 1 - 2 weeks (though for a long time prior to this I was only an occasional drinker), but I've been wondering if that is too much at my age (2 so I've decided to cut back. Basically I want to see how my drinking measures up to other peoples. I am going to see the Pogues next month though, so I imagine I'll end up drinking then.

More than once a wekk, but right now I am off alcohol for at least a month just to get myself back in the gym. Once I start working out more regularly, I will reward myself with some good booze!

How old are you?

And, also, i believe you have a girlfriend, so that does change things also.. when i was living w/ my ex girlfriend i barely drank.. but i also worked strange hours on the weekend.. so we would drink occasionally when people came over, but didn't go out to the bars more than once or twice a week at the very most..

now that i'm single i'm always out w/ my guy friends drinking.

I'm 28, I tried to put that in my last post but it came out as (2.

Being single definitely increases alcohol consumption, I have no doubt about that.

oh, gotcha.. yeah, being single with no obligations to hang out with someone is great most times..

28.. you're still in your prime . i'm 24 next month, i'd like to think i've got a lot of years of drinking fairly often left.. Thing is i live in the smallest state in the US, while it has plenty of fun places to go, it still gets old, so now that i'm making more money it's a lot easier to go to NY for a weekend and not worry about what i spend.. boston is always a good alternative too. if i get a heavy enough rotation going then i'll be drinking for a while.

I drink 1-3 days a week, but usually only "over-do" on a friday or saturday. Like RP33 said, it seems going out for drinks is nearly about the only social activity that can be done at this age.

Sometimes I'll have a few beers during the week, unwind and watch a movie or something. But I sometimes play with fire when I do this and end up regretting it. Similarly to CGM, once I start I don't like to stop
