Average consumption per week

Yes I'm feeling good now. The 'recommended' weekly limits for the UK are 14 units for women, 21 for men with at least 1 day AF. They did equalise this for a while but then back tracked.

For a guide the drink-driving limit is 3 units for women, 5 for men and then you'd be borderline - plus of course everyone is different.

I was drinking about 7 bottles of wine a week,but didnt drink everyday so sometimes it would be 2 bottles in a night.

I am curious to find out what your average consumption per week was when you were drinking? Mine was too much for me and I decided to stop for many various reasons, including health, legal, emotional and relational. I averaged 25 drink per week. Thank you.

Hi Keyners
I used to drink 2 - 3 bottles a week, for at least the past 2 years. Almost every week I would tell myself that wine was bad for me and I would never drink again. I knew I was using the wine to numb the pain of my sad life. Then 15 days ago I found this site, started on the supplements, and have been AF since then.

I'm proud to be where I am today and each day I hope to finally leave AL behind me for ever.

I used to drink up to 6 corts of beer on every off day i had. There are about two and a half glasses of beer per cort. And i was off on mon and wed. The amount of alcohol for that beer is 5%. So was i goin overboard. I'd sometimes drink a 750ml 13%Alc bottle of wine and then two or three corts. Either way, one thing i can say, is that once i started i couldn't stop. Everytime i'd go buy only one cort, and then end up goin back and gettin two more, then back for 3more. Crazy. But this addiction is powerful. I don't sit craving a drink, well not most times, but once i hav one i crave more like crazy thanks

I would have at least 10 units a day for 5 or more days a week. I figured I was spending upwards of $400 a month just to keep the cheap shit around and I was at a DUI BAC level MOST of the time. How sad!!
