[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a glass of wine almost every night with my spouse. It’s pretty much a ritual for us. Everyone I know does this. Seems odd to me to have an issue with it.[/quote] That's the definition of alcoholism. I don't know anyone who does it. [/quote] I'm married to an alcoholic and having one glass of wine with dinner is absolutely not the definition of alcoholism. It would not trip the CAGE test. It would not trip the 12 question test that talks about being compulsively unable to stop and interfering with daily function and relationships. It would not trip any of that. Maybe, maybe, it could eventually shade over into minor alcohol misuse if PP and her husband started having issues with sleep because of it (some people do with just one glass) but refused to stop or something. Maybe. But alcohol use disorder, aka alcoholism? No.[/quote]
