Okay so I don’t get the shakes or anything like that but I get mad cravings and it’s like eating at me to buy a drink and I always give in.. this doesn’t happen every day but at least 3 times a week.
Also when I drink I can’t just have one... or two... (or 3 lmao) never been that type of person..

Man, that might be a physical addiction, not sure. I know I consider myself an alcoholic, even though I have been clean and sober for 10 years now. I quit drinking entirely at one point because I was drinking to be happy and I felt it was wrong that I should need something to make me happy. Then I started back after a year or 2, but I forced myself to only have a max of 2 beers or 1 single hard drink, drank very slowly. If I felt a buzz coming on, I would pour out what was left and stop drinking. I know that if I ever allow myself to go back to that hard drinking, I will not be able to stop again, that is why I consider myself an alcoholic. You have to make that determination for yourself and make that choice to stop for yourself or it will not take. I wish you the best of luck, no matter your choice. Just be safe and stay out from behind the wheel. Also, do not ask your friends to hold your beer while you do something.....
