Welcome,
A good way to check if you are an alcoholic or not is quit for a year
Also, if that doesn't work, try some "controlled drinking".
Do you always drink the specified amount you set out to drink? Like when you say to yourself, things like "I am not going to drink today" or "I am only going to have one (or two)" are these statements always true?
Alcoholism has little or nothing to do with the amount you drink or the disarray your life is in, alcoholism has to do with the loss of control of your drinking.
Your life can appear shiny from the outside and be unmanageable from the inside.
if, when you try to stop drinking, you can't, or when you drink, you lose control of your drinking, you may want to take a second look, these are the characteristics of an alcoholic that you may want to address.
