I can go out and have only a couple of beers, but every now and then (probably once a month) I have a night where I get totally out of control. Last night I don't remember half of what I did and apparently some of it was pretty stupid. I also tend to say and do things I would never do sober and it's starting to worry me a little bit because alcoholism runs in my family.
Is getting completely sober the kind of thing where you just cut yourself off from booze completely? I know that I would like to be able to still enjoy a nice bottle of wine when out with the g/f once in a while and the occasional summer patio beer. Anyone here ever had a problem like this? I think it's basically binge drinking but there's like a little trigger in my head that says "have more". And I know it needs to stop. Any advice? Others say I have a problem because I don't drink during the week and that makes me feel like I can binge on the weekends.
Serious posts only please and feel free to PM me if you have any experience with this.
