How much is too much alcohol?

[gardenia]

I have a drink every evening. I dont have to, but I like to. Some evenings I have a few. When should I be worried?

When you find yourself reaching for it even when you don't want to be

I wouldn't worry if you really genuinely feel you don't 'have' to. Try having two nights a week with absolutely none and see if you have awful cravings or not. If you do you may have a minor dependency, if you don't then why not stick to a couple of abstinent evenings a week anyway? It gives your liver a chance to recover.
