Name one famous alcoholic who has committed suicide, name one. I can name dozens who have died from alcoholism, but you will be hard pressed to find any who have committed suicide from alcholism. The fact is, it doesn`t happen. Check out the stats on suicide. The facts are alcoholics are less likely to commit suicide than non-alcoholics. Like I said, check the stats.

Ernest Hemingway.

You have an arguable point however. It would be extremely rare for a 27 year-old man to kill himself for any reason, short of serious mental illness like schizophrenia or bipolar disorder. But for drinking too much? Not likely.
