What is it with you infatuation with how much people drink US ?
Every so often you drag up the same poll, is it that you feel you drink far too much yourself and looking for solace that you are not alone ?

To help with your question what constitutes a unit ?

I have an app on my iPhone called Drinks Tracker - you add in your drinks on a daily basis and it calculates what your average units per day is.

My average daily units in the last 7 days is 3.4 which is within the daily recommended amount for men. For the last 30 days, may average daily units is 3.5. The recommended daily amount is 3 to 4 units so I try and achieve that!!

This figure has no medical grounds to it though.

Right here, right now
:lol:

One of my clients also drinks 1.5 litres of whisky and 12 cans of Cider a WEEK which is 90units a week and is also fit and 50 and a hard working professional. Its not necessarily big or clever but the maximum units figure is a figure plucked out of the air by the
Government and holds no medical grounds to it.
How does he have the time to drink that much every day AND be a hard working professional? Unless he is a hard working professional drinker of course?!?!

Units? Units? what kind of faggot measures their alcohol intake in Units? I drink pints, act accordingly.

In that case,
Normal week, 0 pints, 0 wine, 0 spirits
Heavy week, 2 pints, 0 wine, 0 spirits

Am I an alcoholic ?

You are borderline, you are drinking over twice the rcomended amount for the average 2 month old and I suggest seeing a doctor urgently.

Used to drink over 70 units a week, but since having a family of my own to look after, I just do not drink alcohol at all. If this poll had been about Coffee, then that would be a different matter altogether.

How do you work out units i drink about a bottle of sailor jerry or capt morgan rum over the week, and two bottles of wine a week, and if i go out about 4-8pints once a week with maybe a few rums thrown in. On a quiet week so what does that equal then please ?

Whether he knows it or not yet but that will be absolutely destroying his liver and other internal organs. That will definately catch up with him and probably after it's too late to do anything.

Too true. My Dad used to drink only around 35-40 units of alcohol per week, now in his 50's and was diagnosed with cirrosis of the liver 3 years ago.
