Yes you have Jan -- 6 drinks of alcohol, a benzodiazepine, and the chloral hydrate that I believe is sometimes thrown in there (gack!), is a miracle that you pushed through that without serious harm.
Not everyone is the same. 6 drinks a day is considerably over the top for the average woman and a fair bit over for the average man.
I'm not saying you have it, but that can lead in the direction of alcoholism and sheer hepatoxicity.
Not to mention the combination of all the drugs above could lead to coma.
Modest drinks of 1-2 glasses per day or every other day, if you don't have a lot of CNS depressants (benzos, antidepressants, AEDs) on board, may or may not be fine for an -individual-.
