God, I binge drink so much.
I know I'm a student and a lot of students just go out and get completely wasted near enough every night, but I drink A LOT to get drunk. A 70cl bottle of vodka to start the night, then more at the bars/clubs I go to... and THEN I go to a 24 garage or shop and buy more at about 4 in the morning and come home to drink it.
No one I know does that. They might go to clubs nearly every night but don't drink as much as I do.

And the thing is, I can't go on a night out and NOT drink. I always want it. I can't have a weekend without ONE night of drinking... but I always preferably want two or three on a weekend. And I crave alcohol most of the time.

This must be alcoholism.

You sound like you need a drink ;)

I go out of my way to find cheap alcohol in shops and bars etc. That's definitely signs of alcoholism.

Dude, how can you afford to spend that much on drink? Pretty much everyone I know has cut down some bit with the recession.

I think you could do with some counselling.

An AA clinic at 19 years of age though?
Someone messaged me a while ago saying their friend was in rehab at 14.
I don't want to give up alcohol though.

Wow, that is a lot. If I drank as much as you do, I would die.

Have you considered calling an AA clinic?
