In the week - maybe six cans (500 ml) of lager, 2 evenings out of 4

Friday Night - 7 pints of stella artois

Saturday - 6 pints of guiness, 4 litres of cider

Sunday - 4 litres of cider

I mean, that was this week, and to be honest, I know it is too much, but that isnt untypical.

I drank that much consistently for about six years. I was one fucked up individual by the end of it. I still drink, and sometimes even drink to excess, but not consistently like that any more. If nothing else, it will pull your moods down when you're not drinking. If I were you, I'd dry out for a month, and then make an effort to not drink more than a litre on a weeknight (and whatever you like Saturday or Sunday).

Or not. It's good that you're even concerned. Eventually, that will slow you down some. Be Well.
