Are you drinking: Often? Getting into fights? Behaving in embarrassing ways when u drink? Having trouble getting up 4 work the next day? Forgetting what happened the next day? Feeling hung over? If some of these things are happening, feeling guilty is a good thing which will help u assess whether u have a problem with alcohol. The fact that u r asking seems 2 indicate that u may want 2 consider talking 2atherapist.

Guilt: Most people who drink reasonably do not feel guilty when they drink, it is more consistent with people who drink too much. Attending an aa meeting can give you an accurate, helpful assessment of your drinking. Attend a meeting in your area and ask for help. Best.
