Can you be an alcoholic if drink everyday?
Not necessarily. Some people can drink alcohol daily without becoming addicted or experiencing negative consequences. However, drinking alcohol every day can increase the risk of developing an alcohol use disorder (AUD), which is considered a form of addiction.
Some factors that can increase the risk of developing an AUD include:
- Genetics
- Personal history of mental health disorders
- Family history of AUD
- Drinking alcohol in large quantities or frequently
- Mixing alcohol with other drugs
- Having certain medical conditions, such as liver disease or depression
It's important to be aware of the potential risks associated with drinking alcohol and to seek help if you have difficulty controlling your alcohol intake or are experiencing negative consequences as a result of your drinking.
