I'm 17 and I'm pretty straight edge considering my work has me take a drug test monthly. I also have never really done much drinking. Recently though everytime I've been seriously depressed I just wanted to drink....I used to be a cutter, still do a bit every so often so you'd think that I'd be tempted to do that. Now all I want to do is get completely drunk and just break the bottles against a wall. So....am I an alcoholic? PLEASE SERIOUS ANSWERS, IT'D BE NICE TO NOT HAVE PEOPLE TELL ME TO START DOING DRUGS OR TURN TO JESUS' OR WHATEVER HERE


Thanks.
 
nah dude. an alcoholic means you are mentally and physically dependent on alcohol.

you WANT to do alcoholic behavior, but have not done it yet. You are merely tempted.

I used to feel the same way, just mellowing my emotions and stripping my memory with alcohol....but in all honesty its not going to get me anywhere and its hard on my body. i used to think i had some sort of problem with alcohol. but we are both teenagers and I guess its pretty natural to feel this way.

experimenting and curiosity and complex emotions all come in a big beautiful present called "stupid teenage hell"
 
Sometimes the human mind looks for depressants when they are feeling depressed. I would avoid alcohol as it will make you feel worse and see someone to help if you think you are going down the addictive pathway. Goodluck
