Does someone who consumes 12 drinks within one night of partying, a binge drinker?

A friend of mine likes to get drunk about once a month, because he enjoys losing control. He described a typical night of partying as being 12 drinks. He also claims that he would be fine to drive after this, and I’m wondering if he has an alochol problem.

What is the best way to get over a 2 1/2 year relationship with someone who was great, but binge drinker?

I am a 29 year old woman living in Central Oregon. I just broke up with my boyfriend of 2 1/2 years due to his binge drinking. I love him, but it became too much. I have been home all day…tried gardening, took a walk, but still feel down in the dumps. Any ideas to pick up my spirits?

Is there a difference between a binge drinker and an alcoholic, or is it pretty much the same thing?

Some people say that binge drinkers will drink nonstop for, say, two weeks and then stop for a while and then start again. And that alcoholics just drink nonstop. Hell I dont know,what are your thoughts

I have found myself, especially in the past year that whenever i drink, i get smashed and i am sick the next day… i used to know when to stop but now it seems i dont know my limit… i love the buzz i get when im happy drunk… my parents are both alcoholics, but were sober before i was born… am i a binge drinker and if so is that an alcoholic?
