If you really can control it you are very strong, but most people doing something daily has that very thing come back and bite them. Why even mess around?? It is like playing with fire, one day you will get burned!
Usually people that ask, know they are bound to get bit by the hair of the dog. Especially if they are here.

See if you can go a night w/o one .... and if you can go for a couple of nights w/o your drink(s) without experiencing any nevermind or anxiety... enjoy your drink at the end of the day.
If you feel anxiety over not having that drink... you might be a risk for a bigger problem down the line. But the way you explained it now...doesn't sound all that threatening.
I don't drink.... doesn't mean I won't have one if I want one if we are out for dinner...as a rule...I never consider drinking. But we have wine at the table every night at dinner and my Mother (85) drinks a glass of wine...EVERY NIGHT. Never binged, doesn't drink other wise.... so it's a matter of perspective I guess.
If you are here asking... there must be a reason ....My two cents... take it for exactly what you paid for it.
