<p>I will add my agreement to the “If you think you drink too much…” Also, I’m willing to bet that you didn’t start out drinking that much, as you said, so you are already seeing an increase in your consumption. To the people who said if it doesn’t interfere with your social/academic life, then it’s okay–this is false. Many professionals are functional alcoholics. My H went through a liver transplant–trust me, you do not want to get to that point. That is what it took for him to stop, all the while saying he did not have a problem, he went to work every day, was very successful, but he could not stop. Sure, he would “stop” for a week, but he could not stop. BTW, I am a 5’5" female, and 7-10 drinks would certainly get me pretty drunk, even if I didn’t get sick. Getting sick means your body is trying to recover from very toxic levels of alcohol. Not getting sick just means you haven’t quite reached that alcohol poisoning level. My vote is to quit…you will enjoy a great show as you watch how foolish others look after 7-10 drinks.</p>
