The most stupid question on forms has to be 12:44 - Jul 21 with 2147 viewsDolly2.0

"How many units of alcohol do you consume per week?"

How the hell am I supposed to answer that? Even if you know what a unit is, every week is different. I might have one week with not a lot going on followed by another with a birthday, a couple of dates, a piss up after work and footy on Saturday.

Even gauging an average is impossible. I had to answer this on a form for the dentist the other day and just put 20 because I had no clue whatsoever. On a particularly big night I don't even know how many drinks I had THAT NIGHT!

How does anyone else answer this question (apart from the teetotallers, obvs)?

Basically, you take a rough guesstimate, then we double it.

What if I put zero? You can't double zero.

Agree it's a pointless question. I hardly ever drink so put 1 unit because 0 tells a completely different story. When I holiday I drink, but otherwise not often at all

And I'd love to know if anyone answers 50 or above.
I'd have to be pretty drunk to answer honestly some weeks.

In which case they're being unethical, irresponsible and completely inaccurate (well, in my case anyway!)

When I was really hitting it (I am now reformed) my GP asked me and like you said I halved it. She then looked at me with glaring eyes and said "What, every single week"? To which I replied "No, every day"

My late Dad was called in prior to his triple bypass and was told that he could have no more than 7 pints a week to which he enquired if he was allowed to have them all in an afternoon.

They always double what you put down anyway, because most people dramatically under estimate how much they drink (and smoke).
