Question
Do I have a drink problem?
years old, male, binge drinking sessions this year cannot remember much. Have lost my driving licence for years. Family think I have chronic problem I think I can control it I can go weeks without touching a drop!Alcoholics need a drink every day.
Answer
Sorry to say that you have a problem, you are also still in denial, which makes it difficult for you to seek help. Perhaps this question is your first step. After so many heavy sessions you need to get a physical health check from your GP including liver function tests. While you are there, If you are ready, you could ask him to refer you to the local community addiction team, they should have an alcohol specialist. I am sorry to say that alcoholism has become the poor relation of addiction management, with such a high percentage of effort going into other drugs.
