I'm an evening and weekend drinker too. I have a good M-F 9-5 job but I feel like pure crap most days at work. I told my wife about a month ago that I'm pretty sure I'm an alcoholic. She was very supportive. Of course she already knew but she was genuinely pleased that I had made that step. I still drink. I've gotten to day 2 twice since that day and will keep trying until it sticks.
