You think the term alcoholism is bad, grow up with drunks. Do you have any idea what a low bottom drunk is, my mom was, it's incredibly painful to watch.
If you have a parent that's alcoholic, or uncle, etc. you have a 4 times greater risk of becoming one yourself.
And, believe me, it ain't as simple as,'gone too far, just get help-doesn't have to be AA.' That is naive and bad information. People who drink too much, especially on top of mental-illness, are one day going to see a pit so deep they might not get out. I've seen it many times.
If you are to the point of trying to drink less or counting your drinks, or stopping for a month just to see if you can, you already have a problem. This is my opinion but I have been around more drunks than you can shake a stick at.
Take what you like and leave the rest.
