I’m drinking too much; am I becoming an alcoholic?
Hey Rosie,
It seems as though Iâm drinking too much. I have a drink at lunch (I am never drunk Rosie), I have a couple of glasses when I get home and then a few glasses of wine or a cocktail at dinner. My cousin and fiancé both are saying that itâs too much, but I think theyâre haters. Should I cut back?{{more}}

Dear Feeling Nice,
My, my you DO drink quite a bit, especially if this is your daily routine as well!
Look, it is hard to see ourselves the way other people see us, but consider yourself very lucky that someone is stepping up to tell you the truth.
This can affect your job, your social standing and safety. You canât risk that. Start making better choices daily. Maybe replace those glasses of wine with a walk or jog etc. My personal opinion is that you should go to speak to someone about the triggers that cause you to drink as well.
At the end of the day, cutting back from this habit is a healthy choice.
Good luck,
Rosie
