Someone quite knowledgeable on the subject once told me if you have to drink to feel normal, you have a problem.
In large social gatherings, many heavy drinkers tend to think that everyone around them has had as much alcohol as them, when in fact most have had only one or two drinks.
I used to wait until the weekend to drink, and in talking to a liver specialist recently, he said I was lucky in doing so, as I was giving my liver the chance to recover during the week. I think they say anything over 2 drinks per day can cause long term health problems.
