But NOW with nobody controlling if i'm sober or drunk i keep drinking more and more until 3 days ago i finally realized i'm POWERLESS and for the first time in my life i prayed God.
The feeling of powerlessness could be a strong clue.

I know almost any convenience store and supermarket in my area.
To avoid looking like a regular drinker each time i rotate the store
where i buy booze.
If you don't have a problem, why would you even care what comparative strangers think?

You're the only one who can label yourself an alcoholic........but, you've certainly listed an awful lot of suspicious symptoms.......and, as we say in AA, "If it walks like a duck, if it quacks like a duck..."
