See, even just reading your thread I would disagree with some of that. No obsessions? No cravings? I mean surely there is some obses sin or craving underlying drinking 10-12 beers, no?

And honestly I've been known to roll my eyes at people who drink 2 drinks with dinner every night and wonder if they are an alcoholic. I think in the US people are really quick to call people alcoholics. But to me there are so many red flags in your posts. And I've TOTALLy done the whole denial thing. So I can relate.
