Can somebody tell me what’s wrong with me????

Maybe you tired of reading my stupid post and my english
But I need to know what’s wrong with me???
I drink one glass of wine and don’t need more
Butt what this that mean? Lot of people says I wish I could have one and no more
Maybe I need only one to be happy
I need to have alcohol in my system?
Am happy with one glass I need every 2 times a week?
If I don’t have a one glass a every 3 times a week I need to get drunk at least every week or 15 days
What do you think ?Let me know
Be honest like I’m honest with you
Thanks a lot

Here's a test for you, Mar. Only you can decide for sure whether you need help.

why are you happy with alcohol in your system ?
Are you actaully happy or you're just numbing out and buzzing ?

why do you need to do anything ? or drink alcohol ?
Oxygen, food, rest is a need for a human to live...alcohol is not.

Why do you need to get plaster out of your mind just to cope, function,
or live ?

it's not how much or how little you drinking, it's what alcohol dose to you.
There signs of your life being centered around alcohol..you schedule around
it already.

alcoholism is a progressive dis-ease and there's different stages of it.
The functioning alcoholic stage is a bit confusing becuase you're still
functioning and life hasn't gotten totally out of control on the surface.
However...you feel sick on the inside. There a part of you that stills know
there something not quite right. it more comfortable to just continuing
drinking becuase the consequence is not severe yet and party, party.

however you can save youself a lot of heartaches and suffering.
it's not a requirement for you to loose everything and continue on that path.
It's not a need....

there's millions of things to do in life aside from getting plastured.
Ture happiness is something you already have, you where born with it.
you don't need anything to feel that, especailly alcohol.
Alcohol is a depressent btw..so how can you be happy and depressed
at the sametime. Stop puring pioson or a depressent into your system.
Logically you should be able to make that out...
so pumping a depressent into your body is an insane act.

if u can't make that simple truth out...alcohol has taken over you life already.

A couple of glasses of wine a week? You can stop at one? Yet you still think you need it! Maybe you do. It doesn't sound like the textbook Alcoholic by any stretch. My first thought is that maybe it's the sugar you need. Have you been checked by a Doctor for Diabetes/Hypoglycemia?

isn't 1-2 glasses of wine per day actually recommended by doctors? well, for those that can stick to that (for me it's the whole bottle and skipping the food part of dinner). maybe your husband calling you a drunk for having 2 glasses of wine per week has put something in your head... i would talk to a doctor about it, they're the professionals.

Mar13 being here is not stupid, neither are you, a person seeking answers is more then welcome. If you are an alcoholic is a question only you can answer, in the early stages it is very difficult to tell. Today I can look back to the days I started drinking and see the tell tale signs of it, but I have friends that drank like I did then and to my knowledge they are not alcoholics.

Don't personally think you have a problem with alcohol if its one glass a few times a week.Maybe enjoy that as your treat but skip the blowouts,that will lead to problems and once it's got you it's not easy to get away.

Sometimes I think I am one but other times I surprise my self I don’t need to drink more then 1 or 2
