Mutual support helps: Consider attending a meeting of alcoholics anonymous and see if it fits.

Tolerance: Tolerance is one of the criteria for alcohol dependence. It is likely that you are doing daily damage to your body with this type of alcohol intake. I recommend evaluation by your physician. How about going to an alcoholics anonymous meeting and asking that same question?
