Would you describe yourself as a binge drinker? Read the following and then answer honestly...
"The World Health Organisation defines binge drinking as the consumption of five units or more of alcohol on a single occasion. This equates to 2.5 pints of beer, five measures of spirits or about three glasses of wine."

Had three pints lately?

I guess I am a binge drinker then, but I have to say that I think it's all a load of crap.
They'll be banning alcohol next, it makes me want to scream!
How can it be binge drinking if you do it every night?
Oh goodpoint O'bonio, but surely then you would be an alcoholic?
To me binge drinking is not taking any responsibility for how much you are drinking but just carrying on drinking until you pass out. Sitting at home making your opwn drinks and chilling out is as far from binge drinking as you can get, binge drinking is a yobbish behavior with no controls.
3 pints a night wouldn't be anywhere near alcoholism, shirley?
OMG.......I am now, not only a binge drinker. I am also an alcoholic!
Oh my god.... I totted up a heavy night on the town, I was absolutely stunned and no wonder I feel **** for 2 days.
Oh surley a few pints and a game of darts aint going to **** me up?

And have been very good the last 3 weeks have been of the booze 5 times a day but have juist gone back on it now (oh ****)
I open a bottle of wine most nights and probably drink the lot, as I am doing right now. I don't care any more what I am supposed to do, or what is good or bad for me, the more I am told what not to do, the more I will do it..... the list is endless every week we are told...

1. No smoking
2. No drinking
3. No fatty foods
4. 5 fruit or veg a day
5. plenty Omega 3
6. Don't insult the terrorists
7. salt is bad
8. Sugar is bad
9.Dairy products are a no no
10. I have run out of things now, only because I have my yearly rant...I know that this was not the original Q but I am fed up with being told what to do.
