There's a huge difference between an alcoholic and someone who gets too drunk.
They aren't even comparable.
mayaj's problem is that she gets too drunk.
It is my belief that the only thing your average binge drinker would learn from checking into the clinic is that their problems are miniscule in comparison to some.
I realise there may be some cultural differences between my opinions and all of yours but seriously, telling someone they are an alcoholic when they probably aren't isn't something you should enter into lightly.
By some of your definition's, I am an alcoholic, my entire family are alcoholics, 90% of my (vast) circle of friends are alcoholics, approximately 200,000 people who enjoy a Saturday night out in Newcastle - all alcoholics.
