Hi ,

i wanted to ask if anyone has recognised signs of being an alcoholic in young people not really drinking yet?

i am frightened for my daughter as the more i learn about the disease... the more things i recognise in her.
eg: feeling like she doesnt 'quite' fit in, feeling she is not as good as people thinks she is, not worthy,

she is currently seeing a pyschologist for depression
She is not a regular drinker, but when she does she gets very drunk, and experiences blackouts. she is the one they all laugh and tell 'funny' stories about.
she 'hates' herself after she drinks

she is 16yrs old

any thoughts anyone?
