That's a question for you to answer Alan. Your wife's situation may have triggered a behavior that is already firmly in place within you. I was a weekend warrior for a long time too, and I saw absolutely nothing wrong with drinking to pass out. As alcoholism and addiction are progressive things, I eventually carried the weekend behavior to a seven day a week gig. After that happens, all bets are off. Not remembering how you got home is called a blackout. Social, normal drinkers do not black out. Period.
So you may be killing two birds with one stone here.
