I'm just curious

Do you drink (alcohol) when you are by yourself?

If yes, do you observe the same limits as when you are drinking with other people, or different ones? Why?

If no, why not?

I'm sure some of you don't drink alcohol at all, and while I respect that choice and am sure you have reasons for making it, I'm interested in the alkies' responses on this one.

I do sometimes have a whisky or a Suze or a bottle of beer by myself. Only the one though - I never want more than that and anyway I don't want to be the sort of person who gets drunk alone. Getting drunk is a social thing. When I drink with other people I'll have several pints of beer or we'll share a load of wine.
