Hi notsure
I think people can definitely be alcoholic without drinking everyday, but only you can decide if it's a problem or not.
I'm not sure what you do because you haven't said, but I've been a hard worker in all my various careers working 10-12 hours a day...sometimes more.
I started drinking where I could to relax...eventually I found myself drinking nightly after a while, even though I really couldn't either, but I found I needed to...
I also found myself saying I needed to drink because of a stressful phase I was in, or a difficult relationship.
There was always a perfectly reasonable excuse for my drinking, at least to begin with.
The problem was I came to rely on it so much.
Have you tried no drinking at all for like say 3 months? That may help you decide whether it's an issue or not.?
