On the other hand, there is a risk some people are using alcohol to medicate otherwise treatable conditions such as social anxiety.

That is a pretty shitty long term strategy. You shouldn't need to have beer to be comfortable talking to people.

You should do whatever you want. But what other should is up to them.

There is a time for facing your demons, and there is a time for simply enjoying.
