Today, I found out I was an alcoholic. Not from my friends or family, but because the ice-maker couldn't keep up with the amount of drinks I've been making. FML

You simply might be an ice lover, not an alcoholic.

I honestly can't comprehend why FMLs like this get less YDI votes than FMLs about someone saying they're even a little overweight. Both are problems, both are hard to fix. Yet one group gets extended sympathy? I just don't understand how anyone could drink so much that they get to the point of an addiction. I've never had a drink in my life apart from very small samples, all of which tasted horrible FYI, and it's beyond me why some people intentionally drink to the point of losing memories of what happened while they were drunk. Yet those people get sympathy from others while the people who aren't the size of a chopstick get ridiculed for being fat, when in reality there aren't that many differences between the two situations. Sorry OP, but I have to go with YDI on this one; you could easily control yourself and stop drinking, problem solved. Heavy people have to do a lot more than stop eating to whittle down to a size deemed acceptable and "beautiful" by society. They have it much harder, yet they get ostracized and criticized more. It's simple - stop buying wine/alcohol and you won't have to drink it. Thirsty? Try some water, lemonade, tea, soda, juice, anything but alcohol. There are plenty of choices out there...

Not everyone likes alcohol. There are some who like the taste, even with small samples. If you were not an alcoholic, you might not understand. I do think people who are overweight do not need to be put down, but they are two different things. Apples to Oranges. Once someone is trying to weed off of alcohol, it could kill them if they go cold turkey. Don't believe me, look it up. Alcohol withdrawals is the only addiction that will kill someone cold turkey. Both alcoholics and overweight people need encouragement. It looks different too. It is also a personal choice on both ends.

She's probably a fat woman. Oh alcohol addiction is easy and you can stop just like that. Being fat is impossible and oh so hard to not eat as much anymore and overcome.

OP - I would say it depends on a number of things. 1. How many ice cubes were there? 2. How many times do you do this in a week? 3. Did you have good company and the conversation, as well as the drink, flowed? Being British and living in a very hot country - I have a similar problem to you but I don't think its alcoholism :)
