    When a drug is used in more than a daily frequency,I tend to call it an addiction, yes.

    Your alcoholism doesn’t change that.

          Your right I’m just gonna live in a box and stare at screens real life is too dangerous, the thought of having fun is scary and should be banned for everyone because I have a problem with controlling my behavior. /S

        If ice cream destroys your health and causes risks for you and others, yes, I don’t think I’d call it anything else.

            So water is a toxic drug that causes most car accidents?

            Stop the bullshit defense, if you’re unable to live without alcohol just accept it and move on, don’t start making such a sad argument.

              Dude who the fuck mentioned anything about drinking and driving? Do you not have trains and ride share services? Also 2 fucking drinks doesn’t make you a drunk driver. Cold medicine is just as dangerous. Quit your pathetic bullshit argument about how your drunk uncle molested you and so you have to control everyone else around you.

                Alcohol serves zero purpose and has a lot of bad side effects.

                Cold medicine has a use.

                And no one mentioned drinking and driving but not mentioning it won’t make people stop driving drunk. Alcohol is not dissociable from drunk driving because alcohol leads to dangerous behaviours, it’s one of its side effects.

                And trying to do a weird personal attack about child abuse (you think that saying that a kid being abused is a stupid person? Creepy stance dude) just shows that you have no argument and are just getting angry about your alcoholism being called out. Seek help at this point.

                    And others have pointed out that the positive outcome found by this review is exaggerated and biased by lobbies.

                    Confirmation bias, what’s not to love
