Nah if you can drink one beer and be done you're not an alcoholic.

If you're getting shitfaced every night that's a different story.

If you need to have a beer every night that sounds a lot like dependency.

Yeah but those are different things.

An alcoholic isn't gonna stop at just one.

And coming from an alcoholic I'd definitely prefer just drinking one per night.

Both are bad but one of them isn't gonna threaten your livelihood/life/personal relationships as much as the other.

EVERY alcoholic starts out stopping at one or two. I started out just having 1-2 after work.
