I'm not an alcoholic. I'd say I binge if anything but have nowhere near what you'd call a problem, not even, it doesn't effect my work life or my family life and they are kept separate, but even now I start to wonder if I'd really be missing anything if I didn't drink, I only ever feel shit after a drink, it kicks off depression etc and I've juggled with the idea of not drinking on more than one occasion.
And if someone wants to celebrate being sober they can. Some right opinionated dicks on here lately.
