well that's just an addiction... something you might genetically tend towards but not a condition you are stuck with... and most uses of mental illness sort of suggest the later (even if it doesn't always applies).
just a thought - i remember reading that the pill that is useful for smoking is also useful for reducing the affects of other addictions, and its really easy to get a subscription too (by saying that.. well, that your a smoker. whose going to check?). could be better then AA.
also, low-calorie beer... can anything get you off of alcohol quicker?
then there's... you know, AA.
i really don't think there is a point in diagnosing a mental illness until you take the alcohol out of the way, it's like trying to diagnose whether you have ADD when your on weed.
