Most alcoholics are in denial

As are most closet's.

Go on, go for it.

Despite the rumours I don't actually drink that much.

... did I end up pissed at 8pm?

I blame the recipe which called for a small glass of wine...

Is that the Keith Floyd cookbook?

Ah, so my mental picture of you needs amending.

See you at one of the meets

Yep, that was my problem tonight - a couple of beers, then best part of a bottle on an empty stomach. But now I really fancy another...

I can only drink on an empty stomach but that changes my blood sugar chemistry such that I get ravenous so eat and then don't feel like drinking and couldn't drink even if I wanted to.

Go get a kebab

Proper pissed I usually keep to weekends but that just means half a bottle more than usual. I think the trick is to drink relatively quickly to get the buzz then I get hungry so eat and then I don't feel like drinking any more.

End result is pished for a while but sober relatively quickly and really not that much alcohol consumed. The most I've had to drink were at the London meets I attended, two bottles of red and a couple of glasses of bubbly followed by an excellent pizza somewhere nearby on the way back to the hotel.

In the house perhaps a bottle of red and maybe another half if I've got company.

Aye - I get horrible hangovers. But I do enjoy the escapism of getting proper pissed.

How quickly do you recover? Do you get hangovers?

My 'problem' is that no matter how much I drink I never get a hangover, no idea why and my GP has no idea why either.

Staying off the booze means I lose weight quicker and I don't feel like smoking so a win win.

Don't you have to sober up before you get a hang-over? #justasking
