Marc has started drinking whenever he is upset or stressed. when his friends ask him how much he drinks, he lies and makes excuses. he sees alcohol as an escape from his everyday problems. which stage of alcoholism is marc most likely in?

I would say late middle. He can still interact normally and if he is lying about it that means that he is embarrassed of it and doesn't want to be seen doing it. If we was absolutely addicted, he would be drinking it all the time even in front of friends to curve his craving for it

btw hope this makes sense bc i am 13 my parents don't drink no one around me does and i never will so haha don't know much about it!
