Sometimes I sneak a bottle from the fridge and such when I'm stressed, but now I'm starting to just get up and drink a beer
I don't wanna be a drunkie ><
I want to stop it before it happens ^^
Thanks

Well, getting up and drinking is a sign of something that could develop into a problem. I think the solution here is to just show some self control and NOT do this.

If you want to not be addicted to alchohol you need to stop NOW!
Becuase if you dont and you continue thinking it is okay you will keep doing it and then you will not listen to anyone else. So lock the fridge throw away the bottles put a secret sign up or something to keep yourself from drinking! USE SELF CONTROL AND DONT ALLOW ANY EXCEPTIONS!!!!
Good luck! And take this to heart please.

I don't know how old you are, but if you are under 21 (or 18, depending on your area), you or your parents can get arrested if you are caught drinking, even if you don't get drunk. The legal drinking age isn't just because younger teens are often irresponsible, but because whatever you think, your body is NOT fully developed on the inside. I don't how big your breasts are or how long you've had your period, your vital organs are not ready to handle alcohol until you're a bit older. I would think at 18 you'd be safe to have the occasional beer at home (assuming you're in the States and its illegal until 21), but don't overdo it, and don't do it at all if your parents don't want you to. It's good to respect them until you move out.
The tips are the obvious: just stop drinking. Stock up on other, non-alcoholic, drinks and reach for one of those instead. There will be plenty of time to drink later in life, when it's not as big of a health risk.
Good luck!

Well it's never good when people drink because of problems, what you are doing is looking to alcohol when things are bad you need to learn to face these problems in a healthy way, like Sam said self control but I also think you should figure something out that when your stress you can do instead of drinking, a walk, clean, friends etc..
