It's all well and good until you suffer a massive stroke because of the alcohol use. That's what happened to my dad and now he can't walk or take care of himself and we're stuck taking care of him. We still hope he might get better, but we're just not sure if it will happen since his insurance has denied him physical and occupational therapy and even speech therapy. All of that is up to us now too which gives us even more work to do. We just have to wait and see what happens but it's not fun to have to go through that. My advice to you is to watch things carefully and if someone tells you you're acting funny or you notice something that's not right, get it checked out. Dad didn't and now he's paying the price for it.
My brother's been a drinker too and even got in trouble for it, so that's why I'm against it as much as I am and why I will never drink at all.
