How do you know?

Hi. have question if a person since Jan to now has gone to the liquor store over 30 times and drinks about a 5th of vodka (750ml) Does that mean they could have a problem, It seems like the person was drunk straight for two months drank when they get home from work and drank before they went to work.

I would say that is DEF a problem...

If that person is drinking before work (and lets hope he/she is not driving to work, bc trust me, thats an issue in itself) They will prob lose their job, if they dont kill someone on the way to their job... Yes, thats a major problem, and if this "person" means anything to you at all...help them... and if its you that you are talking about..then get help. DUIs are NOT fun.. trust me, I had one 2 yrs ago..and Im still paying for it.. I could only imagine if I had killed someone while I was doing it... the regret and remorse and pain I would live with every day of my life.. would be unbearable...

and secondly...drinking vodka every day is NOT healthy... you are killing yourself.. slowly. I would seek help before it does get bad.. before he/she loses their job, kills themselves or someone else...

the person you are talking about may think they have problems right now..and is choosing to drink vodka every day to block out whatever is inside them... but keep on.. and I promise you.. the problems you (they) are GONNA have...wont even COMPARE..

get some help...really

Yes, they are definitely an alcoholic consuming that much vodka.

Drinking before work is the biggest clue not to say being drunk for two months straight isn't. Also If the person is drinking before work odds are the person drinks on their lunch break also. Atleast that's what my aunt would do and she is an alcoholic and strange enough Vodka is what she prefers.
