I drink about a 12 pack a month. Monthly meeting I'll have 3 or 4. Then sprinkle in a few between chit chatting with neighbors and hanging with BIL.

Of course. I'm going by 12oz beer, 5oz wine and 1.5 oz liquor. Also, a 12 oz bottle of something like Dogsfish 90 minute IPA is equivalent to 2 beers.

C’mon. Nobody is coming on an anonymous message board and saying 2 per night when they really mean 16 ounces of liquor.

Tons of people do that because they want to talk themselves into not being an alcoholic

As I get older I find it less and less worth it.. Lately I might have one drink per week, and even with that one I get so fricking sleepy that it isnt really worth it. I get sleepy and just want to sit in my recliner and do frickall, but I have my kids to play with and chores to do. And I cant drink too close to bedtime or it messes with my sleep.

Why? Someone can stop at 2 per night and you think that's concerning?


Because it is every night, that makes it concerning, a problem, maybe not, but there is a grayish area when you do something on a regular basis that changes from a leisure habit to a dependency, that point in time is hard to recognize at the time, but if I drank 2 every night , I would be concerned

So fellow posters, how many beers, drinks or glasses of wine do you average in a day or week? And are your wine glasses 8oz or more?


Used to drink a fifth of whiskey a week. So 2 stiff drinks a night.

Did that for years.

One day I realized that I wasn't really enjoying it much anymore. Instead, I was just getting bad sleep and feeling sluggish in the mornings, so I quit drinking alcohol altogether. Almost immediately started sleeping better.

Barely drink anything Monday-Thursday.

Friday - 6 beers
Saturday - 10 beers
Sunday - 4 beers with a whiskey or two.

I usually lose about five pounds Monday-Thursday, only to gain it all back Monday morning and I repeat the process almost every week.
