Are you an alcoholic?

I don't understand . . . if thats accurate that almost any college student that drinks is an alcoholic or any person that has ever had enough alcohol to become drunk.

But thats a standard questionaire dsigned to see if someone is an alcoholic.

What?

Wow I never knew I needed help with my alcoholic ways...:eek:

Seems to me that some of those questions are a lot bigger deal than some others. I mean is the person who was declared an alcoholic because they drink to overcome shyness and boost self esteem, (Maybe only once a month at a party) as much of an alcoholic as the one who is having difficulties with their job,a nd craves a drink at the same time everyday ?? I don't think so.

I saw you with that jug of Carlo Rossi sangria! Maybe if you laid off the Uncle Carlo you wouldn't want purple UGGs ;)

I don't think I can comment though, last semester there was an evening with $200 shoes and icky beer from a can and a fry daddy. Oh and last night I bought a bottle of El Gato Negro for $3.09 to fake out my friends with. :p

Heh... standard form rolled out for our chapter's alcohol awareness program... and yes when the test is done I have only seen non-drinkers ever score "non-alcoholic" on it... however it does get you to thinking about your drinking habits -

I always started a count-up, or how many scored 2 or more... and when we got to 10 or more it was harder for the people with hands still up not to see that they may have a problem.


For preciousjeni

Basically means do you go "slumming", hang-out with people you would when sober - or do you lower your personal standards when you are looking for drinking companions or locales...

My sorority HQ made us take an interactive survey thing on alcohol use . . . It was about four hours long and GeekyPenguin got to listen to me bitch for all four hours of it, and there is only one interesting fact that I remember learning from it: Over half of all college students have drinking habits that would alarm professionals if they took place outside of a college setting . . . but since they're in college, nobody worries that much about it.

If you're still drinking the same way at 35, then they start to worry.

Correction, own purple UGGS. (I got them today) No I will not wear them with a mini skirt, no I will no wear them outside my pants.


BTW.... the Sangria is still half full. :D so I can't be that much of an alchy.

I went to a party this evenign where there was plent y of Uncle Carlo.

My friends and I are all abou tt Uncle Jager though.

I dunno . . . studies have shown that 3-5 drinks daily has a cardiovascular protective effect greater than the anti-cholesterol medication.

That level of drinking also shows no increase in mortalility versus abstainers.

However, if this is a morality issue, this is a whole different matter.
