Ever feel like some people post a little too much of their personal lives on FB??

There is a girl I know she is 3.5 years older than I am. I've known her all my life, she is a SAHM of 3 girls under the age of 3. Actually I think the oldest just turned 4. Anyway she posts stuff all the time about relaxing and drinking a glass a wine (after her girls have went to bed), which there isn't anything wrong with it. But then sometimes she'll post an empty bottle of wine, she has even went as far as to state she has been drinking since 4:30 in the afternoon and it was around 9 at the time. And her status was in slightly buzzed context.
now she is posting pictures of bud-light lime margarita cans that are empty bc it's "national margarita day".
Idk I just get the impression she is becoming a closet drinker, which IMO I think is the worst kind of drinker there is. There is nothing wrong with drinking, and she is doing it at home not driving, but to me to drink every night going through bottles and bottles of wine kind of sends a red flag IMO.
I know she has been stressed lately with her daughters continuously getting sick, and her almost 5 month old have horrible colic and possibly even reflux. But if all of that restored me to drinking, the last thing i'd be doing is making it public to facebook.

If she was a closet drinker, she wouldn't be posting pics on facebook.

Yeah that's way TMI. I'm sure all of us are guilty of it sometimes but she needs to watch it. I have no clue how on earth someone can get drunk with 3 small kids, the youngest being a 4 month old.   Is someone else helping her out?

well I mean I think she was...and is starting to just become more public with it. It just seems out of character for her.

I'd never drink when my child was home. I know how I get, extremely sleepy if I drink no matter if it's a glass or a whole bottle. I'd have them stay the night somewhere if I planned on drinking.

She is married and has friend's help her out all the time. They offer to watch the girls for her so she can have some "me" time. And she'll post statuses of FB thanking so and so for helping with her girl in the morning or whenever. Like I said I know she has to be stressing with all the sickness her little family is going through and having a really colicky baby. I went through the colicky phase for 2 weeks and was ready to commit murder, and her daughter is a week exactly younger than my son, and she is still dealing with it. So almost 5 months now.

LOL Sometimes I have days where I just drink a bottle of wine after DD goes to bed and call it a night too. I'm certainly not an alcoholic. Sometimes a parent needs to unwind.

Well if you think she has a problem, why don't you get off here and go help her with her kids instead of judging her. Maybe she needs help and she doesn't know how to deal with it. If I wasn't breastfeeding, I would! You know how hard it is here with no friends or family... Well, I have family but they don't act like family. They still haven't met my daughter. It's depressing. You may feel like you are directly judging her, but you are. So stop and help.

I hate the people who post their exact location all day everyday and have their cell numbers posted and everything. That's scary.. they are throwing this info out there and anyone could access it.

Id be concerned about the amount of drinking the person you mentioned was doing :/ doing that everyday is pushing it into the alcoholic level imo

the thing is she does get help, constantly. I didn't state it in the OP but someone already asked me and I answered.

Okay so at least her kids aren't being neglected or left unsupervised....must be nice to get hours of "me time" every single day lol. But she may or may not have a problem...if she's your friend, talk to her. If not, hide her posts on FB.

Sounds like the posts of a SAHM with 3 under 4.    

I went through a stressful phase where I was drinking a bottle of wine every other night.   I posted on FB about it, I think.

I tried hiding someone else last night, and there wasn't a way to do it anymore!
