I’ve been doing this longer than 10 years and it hasn’t escalated. I actually drink much less now than I used to because I’m not going out partying all the time anymore.
Sorry you’re having problems. I’m not. I don’t even like being drunk or the consequences the next day. As I’ve said numerous times in this thread it’s not about the alcohol it’s just the only thing that works quick enough to be effective. I’ve tried other methods to destress and while some of them work they weren’t effective enough to get the job done in the 1-2 hours of free time I have on a week night. It’s either have a drink or stare at the wall waiting to go to bed because everything I try to do just makes it worse. I’m certainly open to healthier solutions but so far no one has had anything to offer me besides judgement for doing the one thing that works.
To be clear this isn’t a daily occurance it’s just when I have high stress days at work.

I was drinking like that for almost 20 years and one day I started drinking daily and I’ve never had it under control since
