The easiest way to tell is to stop drinking. If you cannot do so, or are uncomfortable, or experience mood swings when you do, there could be a problem.

Another way is to simply consider how you drink. Can you walk into a bar, or a party, or sit down with your mind made up to have a couple of beers -- and walk out having had only a couple of beers? In other words, can you predict beforehand how much you will drink in a sitting and stick to it?

Do you have to have a drink in order to feel "normal?" A beer in the morning to clear the cobwebs? A few beers in order to relax and enjoy yourself?

Does drinking cause problems for you, but you keep on drinking anyway: fghts with your partner or others because you were drunk, DUIs, blackouts (you don't remember things you did while you were drunk, not passing out), missing work because of hangovers or because you were still drunk, etc.

If any of the above are true, you may have a problem with alcohol.

If you find that you are frequently drinking large amounts of alcohol, feel unable to control your consumption, experience withdrawal symptoms when you stop drinking, or if alcohol is impacting your relationships, work, or health, it may be a sign of Alcoholism. It's important to talk to a healthcare professional for a proper evaluation and guidance on seeking help.
