The conclusion I have is that, whilst alcohol affects me differently from the average person that can take it or leave it
To be honest it doesn't sound like it's working that great for you. If, as you say "you can take it or leave it", this may be a great time in which to leave it alone. For many heavy drinkers get to the point in time where they no longer have that choice.
Maybe a test of the (self-will) is in order ?
Can you stay sober for a week ?
Or a month ?
