What Boozer type are you?

Recent news says "Britain has identified nine types of problem drinker, as part of efforts to fight the country's notorious binge-drinking culture".

It seems to covers the gamut of drinkers known to me, though I would not classify any of my knowns as problem drinkers:)

I would define an average Software Industry Indian as a mix of Class 1, 5 and 7 (defined below) after adding a 'Weekend' icing. Checkout and fit yourself in:

1. "De-stress drinkers": Those who use alcohol to calm down at the end of a hard day. Typically middle-class men and women.
2. "Community drinkers": Driven by the need to belong. Usually lower middle-class men and women, who drink in big groups.
3. "Hedonistic drinkers": Crave stimulation and want to lose control. Often divorced people with grown-up children, with exhibitionist tendencies.
4. "Macho drinkers": Tend to spend most of their spare time in pubs. Mostly men of all ages.
5. "Re-bonding drinkers": Use drink as a way of keeping in touch with friends.
6. "Conformist drinkers": Driven by the need to belong and seek structure. Typically men aged 45-59 in clerical or manual jobs.
7. "Boredom drinkers": Those who drink to pass the time and relieve monotony.
8. "Depressed drinkers": Craving comfort, or feeling of safety. Can be of any age, sex or socio-economic group.
9. "Border dependents": These regard the pub as an alternative home. They visit regularly, at all times of day, weekdays and weekends. Tend to drink quickly.
