I think you KNOW if you have a problem by the way you react to alcohol. I could have a handle sitting in my fridge for a month and not even think about it, then stumble on it and bust it out for no reason. that vs trying your hardest to scrounge out 10 bucks for tonights bottle of gin, or turning to it the moment something bad happens...I think you have your answer.

If you're asking the question b/c you're concerned about yourself, then get help. it's not as bad or embarrassing as it sounds, and i guarantee you 100% of people have needed help at one point or another. anyway to the OP question...yes.
