there is no way to drink right. Binge drinking ,when you drink and can't stop until you pass out is a form of alcoholism. i have the same problem thats why i don't drink. And honey..hard liquor will kill you if you want it to. my friend died that way..but she didn't want to die! So i suggest to exercise some self control with one thing that your struggling with and when that feeling hits to do it...write your poetry. I am not saying that will be easy..you want help or you wouldn't be here. As much as all of us care about you and want to give you as much advice as we can...You are the one that needs to try. And...if at first you don't suceed..try,try again!!! xo

honestly i dont think i am but part of me says yes you are
also alcoholism runs in my family my entire moms side of the family drinks except my mom and then my dad drinks too. my mom used to drink but stopped when she got pregnant and hasnt drunk since. my mom comes from a big family her dad used to give her liquor when she was 15 as they read the bible lol isnt that like an oxymoron her dad died of alcoholism. Anyway she has 4 sisters and 9 brothers and they all drink heavily....

You have a problem, the saying goes if drinking is causing you problems, you have a problem.  If you are drinking with other medication it may not work.  If you are sick and tired of feeling how you have been, move to the solution such as coming clean with a therapist.  Jump into sobreity.  Alcohol s a killer, it will destroy our body when we abuse it, our bodies aren't built to put a lot into it.

You have a major problem and NEED HELP NOW!  Before it gets even worse and you have major health problems down the road (including liver and death).  Talk to your parents and have them take you to someone who can help you.
