Not sure if this is the right section - it may be moved!


Anyway,how do you know when you are drinking too much? What is too much? Is it the medical guidelines,or is there a general amount that most people would say is way too much?


By the way,I obviously mean alcohol and not soft drinks!

I'm really going to try and word my answer so as not to cause any offense, which is most definately not my intention. It does scare me a bit though about how much people seem to drink. I have my reasons for being a bit anti-alcohol but it really concerns me about how much people seem to drink for no reason. Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against people drinking socially but does it not worry you that you might become dependant on alcohol to relax and wind down every evening or to lift your spirits a little??

Hiya Millie -no offence taken,dont be daft.


Yes I do think of the health implications.We have only been drinking the larger quanties over the last year or so due to many family and work stresses,but I guess we open a bottle of wine,whereas some would reach for the chocolate or biscuit barrel,or a packet of cigarettes.I certainly dont envisage this long term.

Hi kazzi, listen to uncle Ray,cut it down,you are drinking to much,if you are drinking 2-3 bottles nearly every night it is far to much,try getting by on one bottle, We don't want you depending on it do we!


Take care, Rayxx

Question Author
Ray - Im not drinking that amount on my own!! But I know what you're saying.x

hi kazzi, yea i realise it is you and b/f but it is still quite a lot and we don't want you slurring your words on here do we, I just re-read what I put and it looked a bit rude,but wasn't meant to be,honest,I like you to much to upset you, so, i am sorry if it was a bit stuffy, take care, Ray xx

Question Author
Dont be silly Ray - you werent being stuffy,just caring.I just thought you had misread my earlier posts and assumed I was drinking all that on my own!!
