What
I drink to many beers a night but I go to work in the morning and make dinner a lot of the time. So I was just wondering what the general complaint is about people that drink a lot ? Is it just that you are jealous and feel left out or is it more? Not trying to be rude am actually curious.
Well, if you think that your drinking causes problems than quitting might be a good choice. Only you can say if you have problems though, what do you think?

Seriously want a reason I need help quitting but not sure why I want to. Drinking helps me relax and be social helps me not to stress out and feel constantly frustrated. I would be angry and upset without alcohol. Without drinking I'm withdrawn and silent with it I engage and enjoy. What should I do

Alcoholism is a progressive illness. Everyone starts out having a great time. Most still work and make dinner regularly. Many excel at their jobs and have nice families. At the beginning.
You could be perfectly fine now working, meeting all of your responsibilities, and having a great time. Time goes on and next thing you know...it's not as much fun anymore and it's really hard to stop. Just the fact that you're even on SR and took the time to locate the site indicates you might have some of your own concerns.
Here are some of the negatives...
Headaches and hangovers, exhaustion, depression, severe health problems, missed work and wages, loss of lovers and friends you've let down due to drinking, missed opportunities because you were partying and having fun and didn't realize what was in front of you...dui arrests, or worse..I hope you don't have to find out any of the above the hard way....

I can't speak for the wives. I am the alcoholic in my marriage. He wanted me to quit because I was nearly impossible to live with. It was a nightmare for him. I was a horrible, raging, angry, loud, obnoxious, moody, miserable, and sometimes destructive person when I drank. It zoned me out of life. He is thanking his lucky stars I quit. He tells me all the time how proud he is of me.
You have to quit for YOU though.
