Drinks daily but is keeping well - should I be concerned?

rorahi
Hey, I’ve been drinking every day for years, but I’ve never lost a job or been in trouble. I keep up with my responsibilities, but I wonder if this is still a problem. Can someone function normally and still be considered an alcoholic?

Yes, they can. What you are describing may actually fall under what is known as “functioning alcoholism”. It's more common than people think, and just because you're coping with everyday tasks doesn't mean your drinking isn't affecting your health or relationships. I recommend that you read this article: https://genesishouse.net/blog/functioning-alcoholism/. It explains it very well and can give you a better understanding of where you are. It's worth thinking about even if everything seems fine at first glance.
