Is it normal to be a heavy drinker and just be 18

I've been raised around alcoholics my entire life. my grandpa gave me my first beer when I was 8 years old. But I have been going through a lot like losing a bunch of people that where close to me. and I have drank alcohol occasionally since I was 12 but I didn't start drinking every other day atleast till I was 18 and getting my self in trouble with the law because of it. is it normal?

    You should try to pre-emptively quit it now before it you become like all the alcoholics you grew up with.

    • it's hard to have you ever been the only sober person surrounded by drunk people

      • JellyBean is right, and with you having a history of alcoholism it’ll grasp onto you much quicker.
        You’re still young so sobering up won’t be as taxing, do it now before you can’t later

        Yes that would be very hard. Can you get away from all these drinkers?

    Drink in moderation, lest you wanna die of liver cirrhosis and various cancers.

    Your drunken state caused you to rob a place? How can something like that be blamed on alcohol?

    It's certainly normal but not good or healthy. You should get rehabiliaton for your drinking.

            Yeah, you don't need to be getting intoxicated.

            You do not drive better drunk, you just think you do, and I wouldn't try telling a judge that if you get picked up for drink driving!

            May feel like you drive better drunk because at the time you are drunk. Same as ugly chicks are rootable when you are drunk.
