A member asked:
How bad is heavy binge drinking twice a week for my body?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Bad: It can be just as bad if not worse then drinking a six-pack a day. It's alcohol abuse either way. Both can lead to cirrhosis, dementia, increase risk for various cancers, increase risk for gastrointestinal bleeding, depression, high blood pressure..On and on. It's alcoholism no matter how you slice it. You should get help before it's too late.
