How much a day were you drinking.........
A bottle of wine a day, drunk in the late afternoon and into the evening.
I then shifted up to drinking a bottle of wine or a six pack of pre-mixed drink during the day as well as the evening on most days. I used to tell the kids that I was just popping out to 'return some books to the library' if I had run out of booze. We sure were heavy library users... It was when I was chugging a can or two in the car, parked just around the corner from my house on the way back home that I realised that I could no longer pretend that this was normal.

my final drinking binge days were consisting of a 4 day straight binge. I was drinking big bottles of straight vodka, 26ers. I drank day and night and played video games as I did so. I even went to the town bar and did shots there. I was not a daily drinker but I was a binger. But I was daily at the end and I almost died because I had nothing to eat or drink (water) and barely any sleep... heart missed a few beats when I went to drift off and that scared me so I stayed awake ( was a nite shift worker at the time anyway) Im glad I am 1 year and 8 months sober yesterday!
