I agree with you on that. If I start drinking with the intention of only having a little bit, it almost always ends up becoming more than a little bit.
I think I need to get back into my old hobbies (before I started drinking). I never thought I would become like this. I'm a computer savy person. I've always worked on computers and played computer games. I just happened to fall into my Dad's footsteps (he was a violent alcoholic when I was younger). He has been doing much better now he doesn't even drink that much.
I never drink socially just because I think that I would get angry towards someone. I always drink alone and I hide it from my loved ones.
