I’m 25M, and I’ve been a functioning alcoholic since I was 18. I’ve been working the same job for 7 years. Feel free to ask me anything you wish.
And before anyone asks, yes I’ve tried therapy. No, it didn’t help as much as I hoped.
I’m a functioning alcoholic. AMA.

Do you have any health issues as of now due to your addiction?
What does your drinking day look like?
Consult a psychiatrist. Have you tried that?
Would you rather hit the bottom, or see it coming and decide not to get there?
Do you feel hungover in the morning, or is it just “normal”?
Are you curious about the person you could be without it?
What’s your plan for when your organs begin to fail from alcoholism? (Example, cirrhosis of the liver.) Will you quit then? Where do you draw the line of quitting?
Do you hide it from friends and family? And if no how do they respond?
Why do you drink?
Do you drink at work?
How do you feel when you don’t drink?
