People say that if you drink alone then that's alcoholic behavior but I drink alone pretty often. I'll take wine then add frozen strawberries, and sliced oranges to it and drink it because it tastes amazing. Or I'll have a beer, especially with pizza because beer and pizza is awesome. I rarely get drunk by myself though, it usually takes a lot of hard liquor to get me drunk.

So do you ever drink alone? Have you ever gotten wasted by yourself?

Never gotten wasted by myself, no...I imagine that'd be indicative of trying to escape something. Having a drink at the end of the day though, nothing wrong with that.

I don't drink alone. It's more of a social activity for me, and though beer is delicious I try not to drink it too often because it's full of calories. I do like having a margarita every now and then, but I suck at making them myself so that's almost always in a group setting as well.

Having a drink or two alone is completely different than a 12 pack 7 nights a week.

I very, very rarely have even a drink alone. However I smoke alone quite often. Marijuana is a much more solitary substance for me, however.

Yeah I used to a lot when I was younger but not so much these days.
Last time I did, I was drinking vodka and cooking pasta.
I passed out and nearly burnt my house down...won't be doing that again.

Drinking is purely a social activity with me. Although it would be nice to drink alone, I can't really enjoy drinking if I'm alone whether it's just taking or playing games like Kings.

celebrating happy hour is definitely not alcoholic behaviour.
I think if you drink alone to ease your problems, or if you get wasted just to "de-stress", that's approaching alcohol-relateed problems.
then again, all my knowledge regarding alcoholism comes from A Million Little Pieces

i am exactly the same way. I hate it when people want to walk everywhere and do everything white blitzed, I just want to stay home and listen to music and play neopets.

Cosigned on the smoking alone. I don't really like smoking with a lot of people. I usually like doing it alone or with one or 2 other people. I don't like a lot of noise when I'm high.

I don't usually like to drink a lot (underage), but I will have something weak while I'm alone.


I enjoy Strawberry Daquiri's, especially. ( ゚ ヮ゚)

I used to smoke alone all the time. Since quitting, I don't drink or smoke alone at all really.

I'm drinking alone right now. >__< Totally not a good idea, I guess, but I'm going through some rough emotional relationship stuff right now and it's helping to calm me a little and definitely help me sleep. :/

I bought a 12 pack of PBR about 5 days ago {yes, I love PBR} and it's still sitting in the fridge. Normally I only drink when I'm with people. I might consider drinking alone if it was a fine wine or an especially expensive vintage, just because I am a classy lady. ;P

I don't really drink completely alone.

I have with my twin and I consider us to be the exact same so I guess that's kind of drinking alone. We've only done that when we were both going through hard times though.

Thank you so much. I'm hoping with all of my heart that it works out. <3

I found a 12 pack of High Life at a gas station for 6.99. I've only had three. I don't think I've had enough food in my stomach so I think I'm done for the night. :/

I will smoke with anyone or no one. That is a feeling that I love to share with other people but if I am alone it is perfect as well.

I drink alone, and I go to restaurants alone. I don't think that I shouldn't enjoy the things that I love just because I'm alone. Though sometimes when I drink alone I will get on TC, so there is that.

This. I rarely pass up an opportunity to smoke/vape.

I do sometimes drink alone if I'm in the mood to do so, but I generally prefer the company of others when I drink. I don't care if I'm on Tinychat or in an actual social setting, as long as I have someone to chat with. Drinking alone can worsten my depression if I'm going through hard times, so I usually opt to get high instead if I'm feeling mopey.

Ive never really drank alone or with anyone other than my friends really, I'll have a drink with my parents or family sometimes but I still think even that is a bit awkward.

I drink "alone", but when I get drunk, I always stream video games and see how that turns out.

Always turns bad a few hours in.

Yes, quite often. Lol Although not as much recently as in the past. (Broke :p)

I don't get wasted but I definitely get to feeling really nice. Then again, I have a per-disposition to alcoholism, so I have to be careful. :p Grandfather died from it and mother was an alcoholic as a teenager.

There's a huuuge difference between having a drink by yourself and getting completely hammered by yourself. XD

If having a glass of wine or two while I watch sappy TV movies is wrong, I don't want to be right!
