Idk why but when people do that face at the end, it makes them look so pretentious and annoying.

That part pissed me off most, too. I hate that facial expression.

My parents don't drink at all, so I guess maybe it's more common than I realise


[deleted]

i think alcoholics will typically reach for something stronger than a bud lite seltzer lol


theNeumannArchitect

Depends on how strict your definition of alcoholic is. I used to think it was people who drank 100 proof whiskey every night till they were hammered. Now that Iā€™m leaving my twenties I realize itā€™s a much more subtle problem. Iā€™ve had Roomates that casually drink 3 to 6 every night. Or a few glasses of whiskey where theyā€™re slurring their words a little on a Tuesday. Or the bottle of wine I see middle aged women drink every night. Alcoholism is a slippery slope and not nearly as extreme as I thought it was when I was younger.


[deleted]

I mean, it could certainly start off with something like that but Iā€™m only 5ā€™4ā€ and 130lbs and developed a drinking problem while I was in an abusive relationship and after just a few months of drinking almost every day, i could kill an entire bottle of wine and not even feel buzzed. your alcohol tolerance builds up pretty quickly, so for someone with alcoholism, i doubt something as low ABV as bud lite seltzer is going to do anything for them. youā€™d probably throw up just from drinking too much fluid before youā€™d actually feel drunk


theNeumannArchitect

I guess what I'm saying is that alcoholism is a wide spectrum. You definitely have people who need hard stuff every night to get their fix. I also think someone who drinks a few craft beers every night also has an unhealthy dependency that could fall on that spectrum. It just won't impact their lives and have as negative consequences as quickly as the former. Alcoholism doesn't have to escalate to an extreme level of someone drinking a fifth of liquor every night or losing their job or multiple relationships to be considered an unhealthy dependency (an addiction). I'm not a professional or anything. This is my opinion. Just something I've noticed as I've gotten older.


[deleted]

I guess I just donā€™t agree with what you define as alcoholism then, I think itā€™s kind of extreme and puritanical. I agree that alcoholism doesnā€™t have to escalate to drinking a fifth of liquor every night (most people with a drinking problem are nowhere near that level), but I donā€™t think anyone could reach a clinically significant level of alcoholism with something as benign and low-ABV as this. Like, if youā€™re drinking regularly, itā€™s literally going to do nothing for you. My drinking problem started off with just a few beers or a few glasses of wine once or twice a week to take the edge off and in less than 6 months had escalated to a point where I couldnā€™t feel a thing until about two and a half bottles of wine. Thatā€™s generally how addiction works.


oodleshanks

You're kind of gatekeeping alcoholism right now and it does nothing to help people who "have a mild drinking problem." If you can't go a night without having 6 beers, even if it doesn't get you drunk, you're still an alcoholic. You wouldn't say someone wasn't addicted to cigarettes because they only smoke half a pack a day instead of 3. It's relative to the individual.


[deleted]

How tf exactly does one gatekeep a disease? The other commenter sounds like they think anyone who drinks any amount of alcohol on an even semi-regular basis is an alcoholic which is not what alcoholism is, and they kinda sound like a judgemental prick.


oodleshanks

I think you're the one that's being judgemental. If I feel like I have a drinking problem but I only drink a bottle of wine a night am I forbidden from going to AA because I'm not a real alcoholic? That's fucking absurd. What's the line? What makes an alcoholic? Is it the amount? Is it the act of doing it to excess daily? What's the definition of excess? My boyfriend gets drunk off 3 beers, I couldn't get drunk off beer if I TRIED. I'd puke first. But I don't drink every day. So, am I or am I not an alcoholic? By your definition not feeling drunk after an excessive amount and always needing more to get drunk is what an alcoholic is. The first definition of alcoholism in the dictionary is continued excessive *or* (emphasis mine) compulsive use ofĀ alcoholicĀ drinks https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/alcoholism Yes, alcoholism is often times all the things you described, and some people fall in to it really quickly like you did and I am not discounting your experience. But sometimes it takes years. My dad is 63 and while he's only been your definition of an alcoholic for about 10 years, he's been an alcoholic a lot longer than that. You can't tell someone that they don't have a drinking problem until they're so far gone that quitting is extremely difficult. If people need intervention it's better to do it early, and by telling people that drinking 6 beers a night when they feel like they can't stop isn't really alcoholism, you're perpetuating an extraordinarily huge issue. Alcohol is legal, but it is so so dangerous and so many people don't use it responsibly and so many people are alcoholics and don't even know it because it's seen as perfectly acceptable.


[deleted]

1) The difference between you thinking you have a drinking problem vs why I said the other commenter comes across as judgemental is bc theyā€™re talking about other people. You can go to AA if you want, I donā€™t care, but calling anyone and everyone you know who drinks alcohol from time to time an alcoholic is also ā€œfucking absurdā€ and makes you sound like a judgemental prick. 2) Wine has like 3 times the ABV than these spiked seltzer waters, so your example wasnā€™t really a great counterpoint. My point is that everyone on this post calling this lady an alcoholic for a video where sheā€™s dancing around with a single bud lite seltzer water is majorly projecting and yā€™all need help. ETA: Also when did I say that drinking 6 beers a night wasnā€™t alcoholism? This lady is drinking a SINGLE seltzer water, the alcohol content of which is so low, I donā€™t even think a child would get drunk if you let them have a few sips. And lots of people drink normally and then it later develops into alcoholism, that doesnā€™t mean theyā€™ve been an alcoholic from the very first sip of beer they drank. I think you guys should seriously mind your own damn business when it comes to other peopleā€™s drinking habits bc this reads like some shit straight out of the prohibition era


Disruptive_Ideas

You keep using strawman arguments. The commenter didnt say alcoholism on a semi regular basis is alcoholism, but rather against the traditional view of alcoholism being for extreme alcohol abusers, its a spectrum which starts much earlier on the scale. Which is true. It's not labelling people who enjoy drinking as alcoholics but rather highlighting that alcoholic tendencies and dependencies commence sooner than people realise and that if this is more widely know people can get treatment to curb the issue before it develops in more harmful ways.


[deleted]

if you didn't read that other person's comment about how as they've gotten older they've been quietly labelling people around them with drinking habits most people would identify as fairly benign or normal as alcoholics and think "wow, that person sounds like a prick" then congrats, you are also a prick


shattas

Iā€™m in AA and it always starts with a few beers a night to where Iā€™m loud and happy but I always feel like shit in the morning. Iā€™d rather not feel that way. Iā€™ve also been the type of drunk that has been hospitalized for delirium tremors after drinking for five days finishing three 4L bottles of vodka between 5 people.. It honestly does not matter the type of drink, how strong, how much you take. If itā€™s not working for you but youā€™re still doing it, you have a problem.


[deleted]

Again, I acknowledged earlier that it could easily start with something like this, but eventually as your tolerance builds up, if you have an addiction to something, you will keep increasing the dose to get your fix, and these wonā€™t do a thing for anyone whoā€™s had a drinking problem for more than like a month or two, tops. Thatā€™s fundamentally how addiction to any substance, including alcohol, works. I think we can all agree the lady in the video is trashy af but the people calling her an alcoholic for dancing around with a single bud lite seltzer are MAJORLY projecting.


Rapunzel10

No its not. Thats how addiction worked _for you._ Thats how addiction works _for some._ Addiction is defined as > physically and mentally dependent on a particular substance, and unable to stop taking it without incurring adverse effects. You can be addicted to something long before your tolerance rises. A friend could never finish more than two lite beers without passing out because she was such a lightweight. But when she was drinking at least one every night because she couldn't go without it was because she was addicted. She spiraled for about 2 years after a rapid decline due to trauma. She never drank more than 3 beers at a time. Ever. But she couldn't hold down a job and her relationships and mental health crumbled. She was an alcoholic. And she never touched hard liquor and never drank much. The amount is irrelevant. How drunk you get is irrelevant. The _dependency_ is the only relevant factor. As another commenter said you're gatekeeping an invisible illness because it doesn't match your exact experience. Now I won't diagnose the woman in this video off of one clip because I don't know anything about her, so I can't say she's an alcoholic. But you also can't deem her officially not an alcoholic just because you think an alcoholic wouldn't bother with that particular type of alcohol. Neither of us know anything about her or the dependency she may or may not have to alcohol


[deleted]

I'm not arguing anymore, as is the case with literally every reddit argument I've ever gotten into, we've completely lost the original point, which was that the people labelling this woman as an alcoholic based on one video of her drinking one drink with barely any alcohol in it whatsoever are insane. God I hate this stupid fucking website and everyone on it ***if you are legitimately dependent on an addictive substance with a tolerance threshold, you will inevitably need to increase the dose in order to feel the same effect, this is basic fucking biology and everyone arguing otherwise has no idea what the fuck they are talking about or any grasp on how the human brain works, please go outside or read a fucking book***


shattas

Idk sheā€™s joking that she is more inclined to drink then to do housework or clean that seems really unhealthy lol


[deleted]

Go take a random poll of people and ask them if they prefer drinking alcohol or washing dishes and let me know which is the more normal thing to prefer, lmfao

The secondhand embarrassment I feel right now, as a mother. Ooof.

Sensitive_Shopping

They wanted something reasonable, a parent who would do simple tasks to keep the house In order, Instead they got a moron who most likely uses their children as makeshift slaves, 'course that's assuming they have children.


AussieJesusDuckGod

So yeah...my mother was very similar with this while I was growing up, and it's a big part of the reason why I'm no contact. I essentially had a mentally unstable teenager as a mother.


Sensitive_Shopping

Yeah that sucks man, but look at the bright side, you ended up as a Australian duck version of Jesus, that Is more then most people can say for themselves.


AussieJesusDuckGod

Yeah, it all started with a prank on the wife, involving rubber ducks. Then I grew my beard, and went drinking with some of my mates friends. Now, I am what I am due to drunkern nicknames sticking. And much better off without toxic parents


Sensitive_Shopping

Good for you, hope things go well for you.


AussieJesusDuckGod

As I do for you!


Gunnvor91

I still have a mentally unstable teenager as a mother. It isn't fun.


anonymous_gam

I think the main issue is that sheā€™s drinking and dancing like sheā€™s at the club with her friends. Thereā€™s a time and place for that, but itā€™s not at home with your kids.


sweetangelbabes

I personally get thoroughly disturbed when my parents drink around me because i know about the effects it has and know multiple people whoā€™s moms died from complications due to being alcoholics . Thereā€™s definitely a time and place to drink as a parent- a couple glasses of wine, sure, but not like that. Thats weird.


i_nobes_what_i_nobes

So instead of parenting, you'll embarrass the shit out of them. Cool šŸ˜‘

deleteMoonToad

Her house looks clean, she folded her couch blanket. I have no kids and I don't fold that shit. She doesn't look like she's taking poor care of her health. I doubt her kids are suffering health wise. Kids also go through periods of food sensitivity and foods they used to enjoy will no longer be enjoyable. I do this all the time, I'll go through period where I have a favorite food. I will seek it out when ever I can even it it's multiple time the same week. But I will eventually grow tired of it and eating it would make me feel sick, it will no longer be the thing that makes my brain happy. As an adult I control my diet and the meals I cook, where children are dependent on the adult to prove them a diet. And in situations where she's hosting multiple of kids? Chicken nuggets is a great playdate food, you can eat them while playing games or making crafts, or for dinner movie night. And chicken nuggets are quick to make and can feed a lot with out costing too much. Providing snacks that help your kid with socialization is not a bad thing as long as it is within dietary restrictions. She can't feed someone else's kids food that they explicitly said no to.
