If you can honestly self reflect on your alcohol intake, then you aren't an alcoholic. Most alcoholics I know (I'm Irish, I have a ton in my family) don't even recognize a drinking problem.
I categorize alcohol abuse as leaving half of your beer in your glass as you leave the bar*.
*Unless said beer is Bud Light. I have no qualms about leaving half a glass of water at my table.

Oh yeah. Smartypants. What if he self reflected just exactly right before he became an alcoholic? See. My advice could save the aggravation of a 12 step program.
According to an email I received today, drinking beer (among other things) is the best way to spend your stimulus check! Tell your doc that you're simply doing your part in helping the US economy:
The federal government is sending each and every one of us a $600 rebate. If we spend it at Wal-Mart, the money will go to China . If we spend it on gasoline, the money will go to the Arabs. If we purchase a computer it will go to India . If we purchase fruit and vegetables it will go to Mexico, Honduras and Guatemala If we purchase a good car, it will go to Japan . If we purchase useless crap it will go to Taiwan ? and none of it will help the American economy.
The only way to keep the money here at home is to spend it on prostitutes, weed, beer and tattoos since these are the only products still produced in the USA.
Thank you for your help and please support the US.
