The good news is that if you are not an alcoholic then giving it up shouldn't be a problem
Personally I think that if you or someone else finds your drinking a problem then it's a problem, alcoholic or no. To me the word is irrelevant, it's what we do about it. There was a thread on this the other day, if I can find it I'll bump it. Lots of people have different opinions on what an alcoholic is but there's no hard and fast criteria. I often hear people saying that personality changing is one, but mine never did, but on the other hand I did drink every day for many years. We're all different in our drinking but the solution to every type of drinking problem is the same, stop drinking.
