No, we all don’t.

OP, read Quit like a woman. It will help explain what’s going on.

I’m male. Will it still help?

“I can’t drink just one.”

The inability to predict/set in advance the amount one will drink and stick to it is a classic hallmark of alcoholism.

That you attempt to continue to drink after multiple bad experiences is another indicator.

That you question whether you have a problem is a third incubator.

AA gets a lot of hate on DCUM but it’s free and a few meetings might prove informative.

Yes. If you identify as an alcoholic, you are one. You can be whatever you want to be.

No

What about them? There's no need to apply some silly label to everything, despite what the NA crowd may say.

I can’t drink just one so I don’t drink often. Any time I drink I intend to get drunk but often stop at 2 drinks just because I don’t feel well. If I get drunk I get bad hangovers, gastro issues and feel horrible for like three days .
