amazing friend when not drinking

[laura221188]

I have a friend that is amazing she helps with everything always there when i need to speak to somone but one problem she gets drunk so easily and i dont know why we have a drink every few weeks but ive noticed one or two drinks and she changes ,she becomes very opinionated and borderline angry her partner has said to mine that shes always arguing when she has drank .even when i know its been only one or two glasses
is she realky getting drunk with that little or is there more to this than shes letting on
Anything i can do to help ?
apart from the obvious that i have already done and that is not drink with her .

Hi there no she doesnt live with me. I would be even more worried if i found out she was drinking before she met up with as she drives to my house  then her partner picks her up later that night .
I'm going to try the video tape first and take it from there thanks so much for replaying.

many women are 'secret drinkers'.  when a person becomes an alcoholic it only takes 1 or 2 drinks to set it off.  
even after not drinking for 2 yrs, if i have 2 drinks my brain behaves the way it did when i drank heavily, so i just cannot drink. period.
i would have to guess that your friend has been drinking more than anyone else knows.  
does she live with you??  how can you say for sure how much she has drank?
i ask this because nobody knew how much i was drinking.  i would have already had about 3 drinks before ever going to my friend's house and then just have 1 or 2 there and it would tip me over the edge.

have an honest talk with her about your concerns.

Im not aware of any medication she is on but i will try slip it into converatation next time i see her and also the video tape i think could work as she hates herself in video so seeing herself drunk and acting out of character may help,
Thank you

THAT. or she has a mental disorder cuz I'm bipolar n I know I'm mean as he'll when I drink

I wouldn't think 1-2 drinks would bring that kind of behavior change on.  Is it possible she is on medication ( prescribed or otherwise) that might be increasing the effects of the alcohol?

Wit sum alcohol for me all it takes is one sip n ima insta *******. Dk Why think certain liquor effects ppl different just try talking to her n explain what she acts like or better yet video tape her always a huge impact when ppl see themselves acting different then normal
