Social drinking is usually undertaken in social settings without intending a drunken state. It has been increasingly noted that this form of drinking is compatible with both happy and morose social occasions and is almost an indispensable aspect of the social routine nowadays
Its party time and maybe you have an occasion to celebrate. The food at the table looks yummy and yonder the liquor section beckons you for that little bit of an appetizer that you tell yourself you need to gorge away on the lip-smacking menu. You begin with a drink, take another, get into a chattering match with your friends, down another couple of whiskeys and before long you are stuttering your way towards the dinner table. Post dinner, you are zonked—and your driver helps you onto your car and drives you home. Well, if this is only an occasional episode, its fine. But does it sound like a familiar routine? If so, you may be abusing alcohol.
