Is it normal to drink by yourself

hey i'm a girl and i like beer. am i abnormal?

awesome. i do it myself.
and definitely not a sign of alcoholism.

Having a beer or two is ok, but getting drunk by yourself is not!

forever alone

Mannnnnnnn, I got a drink right here infront of me. I'm lonely too. WOAH. I got a great solution! Lets get together and get DRUUUUUUNK!

Doing it sometimes is okay, if you're really bored or need to boost your mood. But don't get hooked on it. Drinking with friends is a lot more fun anyway (:

Nothings wrong with wanting a beer or glass of wine after a long stressful day. Just don't do it too much or get drunk by yourself.

You are a dude and you are asking if drinking beer is normal? This is like asking if it is normal to eat alone or to sleep alone. It isn't preferable for most people, but it certainly isn't abnormal.

As long as you stay away from the liquor and you aren't having more than 20 beers a week, (and you aren't overweight) there isn't any inherent problem with this.

First sign of an alcoholic is drinking alone.

Getting drunk by yourself is a bad path. Having one drink is fine but watch out for patterns in your drinking and make sure you aren't addicted

It's a sign of alcoholism. Nothing wrong with housing beers, but do it socially
