If you cannot stop, it's not good.
Europeans normally drink a few glasses of wine a day or a few beers. It's cultural. I don't think that all Europeans are alcoholics.
But if you can't EASILY stop for 6 weeks...that's always my litmus test. If you can...vaya con dios. And I mean maybe have a day or two where you think about it and maybe get a bit trembly....but if you're counting off days until you can drink again, you're proving the point.
If you're worried, stop. You shouldn't have significant withdrawal issues (never say never, but the odds are forever in your favour on this one). You still need to make a plan and probably join some formal sobriety group like AA or RR or whatever's ur pleasure.
So do what it takes and stop. There are a ton of resources here to help you on your way.
What's the advantage to continued drinking? There must be at least one or this would be a no-brainer.
