it was very gradual for me, but now at 57 it was out of control and I know I can not ever go back to drinking thinking I can moderately drink. every binge I did was worst than the one before. I have been sober only few weeks this time, but My life is so much better, I am happier, I sleep awesome, I got back to my exercise routine, and I feel strong, and I thank my guardian angel every morning for the one more sober day I have. As I get stronger the little voices in my head that tell me I can have a drink,do not appear as much and I prey that when they do come back I realize it is the devil talking.

When I could moderate, alcohol wasn't a problem and I wouldn't consider myself an alcoholic.
Not being able to moderate was the sign I am an alcoholic.
So for me it's a yes or no thing. Alcoholics can't moderate, that is what I consider to be the definition of an alcoholic.
