Hi, my DS turned 18 in September and has been drinking heavily every night since...I am hoping it's just a phase and that he will settle down but his brother has just informed me that he polished off a 2 litre bottle of vodka at his grandma's this wkend! He still lives at home, has a part time job for which he has to get up at 6.30 am every morning - to be fair he has not missed a work day, gets up on time and doesn't appear drunk even when he has been drinking. His mood towards myself (we have had an extremely open and loving relationship prior to September) and other family members is often hostile and angry...know he is supposed to be a grown up now but am worried.

Oh dear. That does sound worrying. Sad

I don't know what to advise except to tell him you're worried about him as he doesn't seem happy and try to get him to talk to you.
