This may be covered somewhere else and I just haven't seen it yet. Is it common for someone to only, ever drink during a very short and specific time... no matter what the total amount consumed is? Say 10pm - midnight, or 11pm - 1am, but not any drinking during the day and only on rare occasions in the evening?
This doesn't seem to fit into any regular category like daily social drinking, binge drinking or even heavy drinking, but when it's every day and sometimes 16oz or more of hard liquor at a sitting it just seems excessive and unhealthy. There's almost a ritual to the way it plays out, like things are being mentally marked off a check list and when all those things are done it's time to drink. Could that be a way to just trying to keep control of it?
Can you be physically addicted and still only drink all at one sitting late at night?
