Do I need to quit boozin?
 

I am posting this because, no one knows me and I find the opinions of the posters here to be generally thoughtful and informed.

My problem: I am 30 and I basically spend my weekends either playing P***r in AC all weekend or I stay home and drink and play video games or watch movies. I am married and my wife just visits her mom or friends and leaves me alone.
The thing is I am drinking progressively more. This weekend I had 18 beers on Sat and 15 beers on Sunday. (Funny thing is I NEVER drink while playing at the tables.) Is this too much? It sounds pathetic and depressing just writing this.
Thanks in advance.

do you feel this is lowering your quality of life? destroying your social interatcions and disrupting your relationships?

That sounds like a lot for your situation. Why do you think you drink so much?

On a related note, your wife will get sick of this routine in pretty short order.

You know who OOT needs right about now? Bison, that's who. OOT needs advice in a bad way, it sounds like.

I basically have no friends. I am kind of an agoraphobe and do not generally feel comfortable around people

This sounds like progressively less[img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img].

Why do you drink this much? Losing at p*k*r? Problems with the wife? Trouble at work? Like the taste of crappy domestic beer?

You need to drink less and get out of the front door. Walk around the streets, go to the park, hell, get to the gym. You are in a definite rut, and are deep-down unhappy.

Hell, take your wife out for a meal or movie, even.

I don't know, but if he did he needs to do it again, if only for Jake and this guy.
