It is the weekend, and these are the times when I throw down WAY too much booze. I keep hearing how bad binge drinking is.
My friends tell me I am way better off drinking every day than binge drinking every weekend. I simply don't know.

It is very good for you as long as you're getting laid.

If not, you're just a drunk with a another problem.

I'll be the party pooper ... rather than worrying about what effects this could have on you, why not just consider giving drinking up altogether? You would never have to worry about the "dangers" of such a practice again!

Alcoholism is a terrible disease IMO.

Good luck to you.

I would not trade all the fun I have had drinking for NOTHING........not even an extra 20 years on my life.

LIVE LIFE TO THE FULLEST MY FRIENDS, AND DONT LOOK BACK!!!!

Weekend,

It sounds like you drink to let loose and relieve stress. I'd work on doing more of that during the week when you're sober. Speak your mind to your boss or to whoever pisses you off. Get into conflicts and do whatever it takes to reduce the stress others put on you. I think that will go a long way towards reducing the amount of alcohol you crave on weekends.

Alcohol I think is classified as a toxic substance.You are much better off using cannabis. Cannabis, however is not for everyone,but I would recommend it as an alternative for those who can handle it.

My Doc told me binge drinking one day a week is as bad as drinking nightly. No idea, just what I was told.

Four drink limit MAX per day, you will be fine........ and for some, it will actually be a health benefit shortterm and longterm.
