    Nope, I think it's partly a myth that there is a problem if you drink alone, there is a little bit of truth, But I think that should only apply if your a downing a fifth everday. Why shouldn't you have a drink if you are alone? Why do you have to wait till there's a whole bunch of people around just to enjoy a bit of Alcohol. I look at it this way, If I am home alone and I want to have a drink, or two or three six eight or whatever what's the problem? I am at home, I am enjoying myself. If I should overindulge I don't have to drive, and possbily kilI soemone or get arrested, I don't have to deal with other people and possibly make errors in judgment that I may regret later. I don't have to worry about anything,... I just have to wash up, walk the few steps down the hall to my bedroom and go to sleep or just lounge around if I want to. That's how I feel about that.

    I'm drinking water or green coffee instead, you can have a drink for me if you want. I gave up drinking 2 years ago, I was an alcoholic & had to give up. No choice, family or drink. Live or drink. I have a back injury that forces me to take pain meds, I can't drink while taking them. If I do then my body hurts like crazy for days. Like to the point I can't walk.

    Have one for me, but only a small one.

    The back is so much better since exercising. In fact I barely feel it some days, just don't tell my Dr I been exercising.... he would hate that
