[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I rarely drink. I'll enjoy a drink (one single drink) every now and then, like maybe 5-15 drinks over the course of an entire year. But I absolutely don't need it.

Admittedly, I do judge people who feel the need to drink at social events - they're masking something, or using alcohol as a crutch to get them through, and I think that's harmful.

An occasional celebratory drink is one thing.[b] Normalizing it every time you get together or have an event, is indicative of a problem. And if you need more than one drink to get a buzz, then you definitely have a problem because your tolerance is completely muted.[/b]

This is all just your opinion, not fact.[/quote]

It's a fact. There are a lot of people who are in incredible denial about their alcohol dependency, as a normal thing to order every time they go out or get together with others. [/quote]

No, it is not a fact. You saying so does not make it so. Everyone who likes to have a drink in a social event is not “alcohol dependent,” and not getting a buzz from one drink is a sign of nothing.[/quote]

If you need more than one drink to get a solid buzz, then you either:

1) are just completely immune to the effects of alcohol altogether
2) weigh 400lbs
3) have build up a tolerance due to excessive drinking

I love how non-drinkers come on here and are the experts on alcohol. I take your admonishments about as seriously as I would a vegetarian's advice on the best cuts of steak. [/quote]

I love how the drunks argue with people who used to be just like them but got sober.

If you have to argue like this to defend your drinking, you may have a problem.

-sober for almost 7 years now, sounded just like you when I very much wasn't and needed to be[/quote]
