^^^Agreed, it has a lot more with the need to drink rather than the quantity consumed. When you get to the point where you cant make it through a day without drinking you're an alcoholic.

EDIT: That 'Agreed' was @ rasan

AN ALCAHOLIC IS SOMEBODY WHO DEPENDS ON ALCAHOL, AND/OR LOSES CONTROL WITH DRINKING.

HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH BEING ABLE FUNCTION THROUGH A DAY WITH OR WITHOUT IT, IDK WHERE YALL HEARD THAT. THERE ARE MANY ALCAHOLICS WHO ONLY DRINK ON WEEKENDS, OR EVEN LESS OFTEN.

What I consider an alcoholic is someone who depends on alcohol to function, as others have already said. You wake up in the morning and aren't right until you have a swig of some drank. There's a difference between that and being a social drinker.

I guess you can see the true definition here also:

Imo an alcholic is just like any other addict they have to have it so they dont withdrawl, someone who drinks beer every day imo isnt an alcholic, thats like saying someone who takes tylenol 3's is an opiate addict lol

I remember my DUI classes had some hardcore alcoholics and just hearing what they do made me look like a social drinker and I thought I was a alcoholic. They were people saying they take a couple of shots of vodka every morning because coffee did nothing to wake them up, beer for lunch, hitting up happy hour, then having a bottle of wine for dinner everyday. These were fucking lawyers, nurses and other people with careers who didnt give a fuck because they were already set, financially according to them. Shit was crazy.

Bottom line is your an alcoholic if you can funtion without it
