I drink 1 to 6 times a week during 9 weeks minimal 1 drink per week maximum 19 drinks average 10 to 14 drinks a week, my father is alcoholic start drink at 16 yo and get alcoholic at 27 yo, and i start drink at 17 yo and alcoholic at late 20 yo and I have been alcohol free since May 6th 18 days before I turn 21, do I need to go to an alcohol clinic, I smoke hashish and joint sometimes 2 times in my life to replace alcohol, because I think the Marijuana is less harmful than alcohol and I can't run out of addictions, my worst binge drink was when I threw up and I was on the floor for 2 hours and I threw up a lot, I almost went into an alcoholic coma, my mother doesn't know that I use marijuana and hashish, should i tell her because she will kick me out of the house if i drink too much back or do drugs.Every time I try to go back to CRON I think about drinking in moderation but I go beyond what is prescribed by doctors which is 14 drinks per week for men or 4 a day

Longterm alkoholics often drink as an effective self-medication for things like social-anxiety. If one does't get to the root of one's alkohol addiction, the outcome can be very grim.

 

The most astounding case I came to know was a life-long alcoholic, suffering an additional epileptic fit at middle age, he ended up in a hospital. By that time his brain was completely fried. Inquiring how he is doing, I was told his alcohol addiction was no more, he had completely forgotten being alcoholic!
