According to science, there are 4 types of alcohol users, but they are quite different from each other. Where do you belong?
According to the study A motivational model of alcohol use there are four types of drinkers:
Social drinker
A rather self-evident phenomenon that we humans sometimes have a hard time avoiding.
A drinker who drinks to socialize
A person drinks to feel part of a group or to feel included. The amount drunk varies from person to person. As a rule, such people drink a glass or two.
A drinker who drinks to feel better
These are those who drink to get drunk or to improve their positive emotions.
A drinker who drinks to forget bad things
These are people who drink to suppress negative emotions. The difference between the third type (above type) and this one has been discussed several times in various studies on drinking and alcohol abuse.
