    If you drink "with friends", you're a social drinker.

    ATM I'm a non-drinker due to nursing. Before I got pregnant I was a pretty heavy drinker though. It's just something I enjoyed, socially or not. I'll drink again when my baby gets older, but not as heavily. I voted occasional drinker because both extremes kind of balanced out in my mind.

    I normally get a six pack on wednesdays and fridays and drink it at home while relaxing and cooking up something good. I'll drink the occasional mixed drink if I go out which is usually never nowadays. I'm really cutting down on the weekly intake as it reeks havoc on my moods.

    What's the difference between occasional and regular?

    I assumed that more than once a month on average means regular and voted for that.

    Do you mean when you're drunk or overall? If you meant overall, that can be the result of it making your blood sugar unstable.

    This is borderline tempting to me, but I drink more for entertainment than competition. Plus, there's no way I have enough alcohol on hand to do it right. It's an interesting offer though.

    Not when I'm drunk, just the 1-2 days afterwards. It has to have something to do with my blood sugar because I've recently switched from hard liquor to beer and whatever is in beer makes me shaky, moody, depressed and anxious. I never get that way with hard liquor. I thought switching would be the healthier thing to do but apparently not. I'm really trying to just give it up alltogether.

    I've experienced this exactly as you've described, including it being worse with beer.

    I'm really trying to just give it up alltogether.
    It may not be a bad idea to switch back to hard liquor in the meantime?

    I had it at the banquet hall that we have our chapter meetings at for an association that I'm in. I asked for it "neat" and the bartender shook it in ice and poured it into a wine glass. *shakes head*

    I drink more often than not. Not as much as I used to drink, though.

    I'm a sucker for unplanned drinking....if i plan it ahead out or in....it loses its appeal very quickly. Also I don't like being asked if i wanna drink...i like being told i'mmmmmm gonna have one and that's that.

    We'd get along well... I don't usually ask if anyone wants a beer, I usually just get one for them... every once in a while, I may ask what kind they want... if I get an "i don't know" then I'll just get what I think they need to drink...haha.

    I drink occasionally, but "occasionally" probably makes it sound much more often than it usually is... I don't drink except maybe a glass every two or three months. Have never been drunk. Generally dislike the taste of alcohol, which helps.

    There was no option for binge drinker. I guess I'll make it social drinker then. I don't drink often, but when I do I make it count.

    I'm a regular drinker. Actually I only drink socially and on the very occasional free nights at home - that amounts to 7 days a week. My pick is gin&tonic or sweet cider depending on mood. I do drink pretty often, but I haven't been significantly drunk for a while now. Usually I slowly sip 2 drinks within about 7 hours so barely feel the alcohol at all. I like the taste of alcohol and I like how it relaxes the muscles but I really dislike feeling disoriented, so I am careful with the amount I drink.

    I always get paranoid I'm going to get liver disease and die so I've made it a conscious decision not to go over a certain amount per week. It takes the fun out of it. I couldn't be irresponsible if i tried. Saturday rolls around and something comes up, nope! I can't drink, already had 'X' amount!

    I am a social drinker 99% of the time. It's very rare when I come home and grill up a steak and drink a beer.

    Arak - in Iraq it is known as 'Lion's Milk'.

    I used to drink a lot of Skyy Blue when that was popular, but that's practically non-alcoholic.

    Same, plus one (at monthly association meetings). I'm planning on not drinking beer much anymore though. At least for a while. I'll generally stick to whiskey or wine.

    Wait, so why did you vote "regular"? I took regular as in at the very least, weekly consumption.
