Default Drinking Poll: What Makes People Drink too Much??

Drinking too much is defined as over consumption of alcohol. Usually more than one drink per hour once per week is considered too much in most cases. For binge drinkers drinking four or more drinks in a few hours more than once a week is usually considered over consumption.

Most people laugh about getting drunk but how healthy is it? You can leave your comments below regarding this.

Also, you can answer the poll questions above.

when people want to forget their problems they drink...some people also just want to have fun and think drinking is the way to do it...well, it's fine once in a while i guess...some just gets used to it so they can't live without alcohol...

actually there is really nothing wrong with drinking... the only thing that makes it wrong is getting drunk... and drinking too much... if you drink 1 glass of beer a week or 1 shot of vodka per week then you're fine... a few drinks with friends every once in a while is fine too... the point is if you drink too much that's when it becomes unhealthy...

Some people end up drinking too much because they were having too much fun with their friends.

Well I personally think that it's a combination of all these!! Youngsters start drinking alcohol to feel cool, later on they do so because it taste good then because they get fun in drinking among their friends afterwards they do so to past time and once they get submerge by work and life trial they become stressed and need to for get about all these!! The thing is that when they start drinking they think that they are going solve their problems but instead and they start get addicted to it and come our with another or fewer problems!! This is called a vicious circle!!

There are many reasons why people drink. To have fun, to look cool, to socialize, to forget about various problems, just for the heck of it or other reasons. But the thing is that people drink because they feel that they need to drink in order to achieve something. BUt those who become alcoholics can only blame themselves because it is a path they chose. I personally do not see anything wrong when someone is drinking at a party as long as it does not become an habit
