Discussion of Alcoholism

Not for the usual reasons

I like to drink and do quite a bit and I know I need to apply "buzz managment" to avoid health risks. But my main question is why? I am not depressed, I am in a very loving relationship with my husband. I have great kids, a great job and good friends. So why do I abuse myself with this alcohol?
