Alcoholism

Alcoholism is a huge problem in my family. My dad used to be one, I have 5 uncles who are (one has passed), and I think my brother Dan might be. I don't see him enough to know, because he lives in Harrisburg, but judging by what I saw at Christmas and the times we visited him, I'd say it's a definite possibility. My mom has a drinking problem, but I wouldn't say she's a full fledged alcoholic. She could be, but she's not as bad as my stepdad.

Forgot to add that I never took up drinking. I don't plan to. Not in a party context, not in a celebratory context, and obviously not by myself either. I'll stick with water. Perhaps soda, but I'd prefer water.
