how do you know if you are becoming dependent on alcohol? Simple, stop drinking. If you can't, then you have become dependent.

Being aware that you're becoming alcohol dependent does not actually say anything about preventing it. Most alcohol dependents know that they have a dependent behavior. Sometimes they even brag about it.

What works is a firm decision from your end that this is not the direction you want to take in life, and declare to yourself that you are accountable for how you deal with your problems. Having problems do not justify it. I have tons of problems, my baby girl just passed away, but that doesn't mean i am justified if i turn to alcohol.

it's a decision you make for yourself. to live well. and live the best way you can.

it's up to you. quit now, no excuses.
