Welcome! Glad you are here! Just because you don't have blackouts or have not gotten a DUI doesn't mean that you are excluded from possibly being alcoholic. Only you can diagnose yourself--no one else can diagnose you>or tell you that you are. Two questions that are helpful (from AA BIg Book)--1. If, when you honestly want to, you find you cannot quit entirely, 2. or If when drinking, you have little control over the amount you take, you are probably alcoholic.

Either way--if you think drinking has become or might be a problem for you--then you may perhaps want to look into what you can do about it before it gets worse.
